I guess thats kinda my point, I was thinking that I could better uses the money elsewhere in my car. Not to mention my car is not a show car so I dont think its going to sell for top dollar if I were to sell it. Hell I saw a 69 on car chasers with an ls7 and a solid build go for far less than I would have taken. I think it depends on the buyer or the seller.

If you do go that route let me know. I might take the ls1 off your hands.

I will keep you posted, its a really good motor. 2000 ls1 with a cam, it had 85k on it and was taken apart to get what I now have. ( Taken down to the shortblock and checked ). I think if I get the right deal I will upgrade but if not I will stick with what I have.
