Default 383 or boosted

OK not sure Where to post this but if I was thinking of sell my motor how much should I be asking for it I'm the Oh king about going boosted once it's complete here's the mods

Ls1 383 stroke 0 miles fully forged
Arp main and rod bolts
Lutani Rodz and 4 inch crank
Wiseco flat top pistons -3 cc
243 Heads ported
Fast 92/92
tick Performance custom cam by Martin 23*24*
Cyote timing set with chain dampner
36Lb injectors

If I decided to go boost or charge how much should I be asking for it?

Just putting it on the table always loved how the chargers whine sound and trying to see what the motor is worth

I would list it at 7k and let someone beat you down to 6k

Basically you will end up eating the labor $ it took to do it all

Just depends on the market

I'd just swap the heads and run a blower on that.

Or TFS as-cast 220s for 4" bore and 70cc chambers?

With a forged motor around 10:1, you could push 11-12 on pump. That'd be 700rwhp with a D1 Procharger.
