Default m12 worth money?

I dont have enough posts to post in the for sale section, so i guess ill ask for opinions on what my tranny may be worth. I have an m12 outta my c5 z06 that has 55k on it. The tranny is rebuildable, but at the moment only has 1st, 5th, 6th, and reverse. If its worth anything id like to sell it and my new z06 clutch to build my m6. Any opinions on if its worth trying to sell? If so, how much should I ask for the tranny and clutch?

If you were to buy a built tranny from a place like Tick they will buy yours. If you don't need something crazy built let someone like them fix yours.

I sold a core transmission and a complete parts tranny to Texas Driveline and Performance a few months ago. I would check with them.

Absolutely you will gain with that transmission. Seen a few cars make monster improvements at the track. Mind you they have 12 bolts, bias ply slicks, and leave like a man but yes you do gain.

Some may say its not but you can go ahead and ignore them. Maybe they like to "Rice from a Roll" and complain about a "dead spot" between 3-4 but everything you need is the TQ Multiplcation from 1st and 2nd.

I have 4.10's in the car now and would stick one in if I had the funds. Might just need to settle for a Spool and 4.30's in the interm.

Well i allready have 4.10's.. lol and the 12 was in my car but after the h/c/i/full bolt ons...it died an untimely death with only 55k on it. I actually have both of them. (never drove my car with the 6 in it) But where im from its primarily interstate runs..not 1/4 mile. So im debating on which one to build.
