My friend has a made and he says that all that is wrong with it is the cams don't turn. He said he would trade me his 24de for my 24e. My thing is should I? I would plan on rebuilding it anyways but how much would that run me at?

I'm gonna try to translate this so OP can try to learn a little.
My friend has a KA24DE and he says that all that is wrong with it is that the cams don't turn. He said he would trade me his KA24DE for my KA24E. My thing is, should I? I would plan on rebuilding it anyways, but how much would that run me?
Realistic answer, if you're even considering this, get more information from your friend. Cams "not turning" wont be the only problem. As far as cost, expect AT LEAST $400 for quality parts and gaskets assuming you have the knowledge and tools that you need, including a good torque wrench. This is no small task if you haven't done it before and based on your post you shouldn't even attempt it.

Why??? YOU are the illiterate fuck who can't figure out how to complete a sentence!
Gee. Your buddy wants to trade you an engine where "the cams don't turn". If the cams don't turn, it's a safe bet to say that either:
-the crank doesn't turn either, aka SEIZED ENGINE.
OR
-the cams are seized and the crank does turn, which means the timing chain broke.
Either way, I'm not getting the impression that you are technically savvy enough be rebuilding engines when you can't even proofread a post before you submit it.

well put.
seriously, something needs to be done with this forum. people need to earn the right to post.
i suggest we create an n00b section of the forum. if they're going to post stupid shit like:
"how much is this car worth"
"should i trade a working motor for a non-working motor"
"what motor: sr or 1jz"
all of that shit can be put into an idiot section for all the noobs to talk. this way we dont get bothered with stupidity. we can talk about important things, like why Broadfield's thread has not been bumped in years... etc
people will need to earn the right to be able to post in this section. and no, its not called premium. money can buy that.

Hey bro I'll give you this sweet twin cam, just needs a little work. My loss, your gain bro! Since you're asking how much it is and type like you're on twitter, I'll assume you're going to take it to a shop. In that case, look up parts cost (on your own like a functioning adult) double that, then add. If you don't have enough common sense to answer your own question here you're going to get reemed prison style by the shop and your buddy.
My vote is sell your car and go buy a civic.
