My thoughts exactly, although a bit tamer-- LS1/LS2. A lot of buyers get all week kneed for some reason when they see "Corvette" on the coil covers.
A warmed over LS1/LS2 would be a good install and make the car appealing to a big audience, especially those who want an old car for the look but don't want to "work on it all the time"-- they equate modern running gear with very low maintenance.
The current Procharged setup would definately scare a lot of potential buyers away even though it is a well sorted, driveable, and reliable setup. A lot of friends and people I talk to at shows are intrigued by my setup but at the same time terrified of the perceived complexity. I 100% agree that by keeping the current Procharged combo you are really cutting down on the percentage of potential buyers. Their loss unfortunately.
Jody, I may have a friend interested in buying Don's complete Procharged 406. If so I'll let you know. If my friend does buy it I may arrange for my P1SCH to find its way onto Don's motor and the D1SC onto mine.
While you're at it, add A/C to the car-- you just made the car appealing to even more people.
I'm still amazed Don's wife hasn't killed him yet.
