Default Considering going back to stock

Well, this car is costing me more than I can afford here lately. I'm considering parting out and going stock. I should be putting money in my kids college fund instead of a hot rod. What do you guys think fair market on these items would be?

Maggie w/2.7 pulley 469rwhp (tuned at lethal racing)
Full innovators west 8 rib setup with hd tensioner and 10% overdrive crank pulley
Kooks headers 1 7/8"
Catless magnaflow full exhaust
Rpm level 5 trans with reverse shift fork mod
54 inches shifter
Monster stage 2 with 18 lbs flywheel, speed bleeder
Creative steel 8.8 with upgraded outer axle stubs, 2 piece driveshaft, true trac w/3.55 gears
Ground control suspension
Gm accesory wheels
Tinted tails

Seems like more trouble than its worth...could probably sell the blown V, and buy a stock V and have some money left in your pocket

Sell the mods and keep the car, plenty of people will be interesting in buying the parts and you will retain far more money doing it this way if you have the time and ability to remove them yourself.

I have most of my stock parts, so the shifter is no biggie. There are other things on the car that I don't have replacement for that I didn't list. Just trying to figure out my next move on the car, and see if it's worth my time to remove everything. I honestly may end up selling it as is. Just don't know yet.

I want an 8.8 badly.. I'd love to talk to you about yours if you sell it.

Hell I'll throw a guess out there:

$4,000 - Maggie w/2.7 pulley 469rwhp (tuned at lethal racing)
$0 - (must include with Maggie)Full innovators west 8 rib setup
$500 - Kooks headers 1 7/8"
$500 - Catless magnaflow full exhaust
$1,500 - Rpm level 5 trans with reverse shift fork mod
$100 - 54 inches shifter
$250 - Monster stage 2 with 18 lbs flywheel, speed bleeder
$3300 - Creative steel 8.8
$400 - Ground control suspension (assuming they include the shocks?)
$350 - Gm accesory wheels
$75 - Tinted tails


Grand Total: $11,000 (close enough)

You're about in line on what I was thinking on those guesses except for the accessory wheels, and the 8 rib setup. It took over 2k to put together the 8 rib, and I figured the accessory wheels being so rare would pull more than that.

Yeah, stock wheels go for 500-600 a set easy. Those are a $1000 set curbed.
