I would think in the ballpark of $300 would be fair. Like stated before, 90k on a 72' 350 is a lot of miles so plan on it needing rebuilt sooner rather than later. Some of those things would run forever, but most had one foot in the grave at 90k. Stuff runs for so long now it is easy to forget just how few miles an older vehicle/engine would reliably run. I remember when I was a teenager and buying late 60's early 70's cars with 80k on them they practically gave them away because they were worn out and this was in the early 80's. I have had numerous newer vehicles that I drove up to and over 200k, heck I have a 2003 Silverado that I use just to haul stuff to the lake that I put 210k on and it runs like new. My 71 had under 80k original miles and basically everything on it was worn out and needed replaced. You have to remember if the mileage doesn't wear stuff out, the age of the components will.
