Default what are z06 motors worth?

I know someone who has a Z06 motor from a 2008 or 2009 z06 with 30k miles on it. Car was wrecked but motor is good. Wants to part it out and only wants 2k for the motor.

Am i wrong in thinking i can almost double my money? Motor has had some work to it and is making just south of 600 rwhp

You could make a lot of money off of it but it's a pain in the *** to do, not a lot of people have $7k to drop on an engine they see on Craigslist. If you don't want it let me know so I can buy it and put it in my Trans Am.

If you are all serious in wanting it.... then i can probably work something out. I wish i could afford to keep it for my c4 lol but i will have to let the LQ9 do. Im thinking if i make enough profit the 6.0 can be made bad *** enough anyways.

If i got ahold of the motor you would have to pick it up from my place, unless your not far from the Dallas area i could bring it to you you would have to unload it...

I have $3k cash right now.

And I seriously hate all of you *******.


Also how much does he want for the whole car? I have been wanting a salvage C6 Z06. I figured it's the only way financially to get one right now. Imagine the highschool girls with that thing.

I will sell it for 5k. No bullshit. The entire motor with accessories. If you want the transmission that will be more. Motor only has 30k on it.

Let me know if your interested. I did not realize they were worth so much until i just looked them up. 500 horsepower stock lol damn.
