Michael robinson Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Like the title says I was wondering how much a de engine with 3k on (just been rebuilt) is worth with gear box and all other parts required to make it a plug and play system As I am thinking of removing my engine and all other parts then replacing it with a Ls v8 engine (this is just an idea at the moment) My engine Currently has Cosworth plenum Ams pullys Samco coolant hose kit and induction kit Stillen headers Berk hfc Stillen y pipe And a few other parts on it that I can't think of at the moment I also have all the standard part's that where removed to put the after market stuff on . I will probably strip all the after market stuff off and sell separately and make it a standard unit again ( if I decide to go ahead with the build ) Any guide line or rough idea would be a great help Quote
Wasso Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 If it was me I'd ask Alex or Lee? They'd give you a stock engine guide price and I'd sell the aftermarket items to earn extra dough. Bold move for an LS. I was going to do the same, did my research and with the majority of resource of part etc in America it could turn costly. It would be a great build to watch and they sound brilliant on a Zed Quote

Will post back with what he says price wise Quote
