Unfortunately I am considering letting go of everything that has consumed my life the past 2 years, the first Procharged V8 swapped RX8 (that I know of)
Sheldon Cramp spent 527 hours on this build for me when the 6.0 was being put in it. I spent the past 2 months ripping it apart and transplanting the 5.3 into it.

I have a huge *** list, but no one cares to see all the minor details that go into a build like this.
I would really hate to see so much hard work, stress & my savings just vanish. But I'm not sure I have the time, space, or mindset to continue investing in this vehicle.
Current issues on the vehicle that should be addressed
-Proper tune
-Reverse isn't working?
The car needs a good tune. The MSD is self tuning and very conservative from what most say. I have the car driveable but you MUST downshift to stop. The car will
The trans was rebuilt and ran through the gears great. Reverse worked also. After a freeway run, I went to back the car into a parking spot, and reverse didnt engage. The clutch can be released as if its in Neutral while the shifter is put in reverse. 1-6 work flawlessly. But Reverse is not engaging.
I'd honestly rather just buy a motorcycle for my speed thrill and a truck for dailying at this point or a C6 Corvette.
With that being said, I am open to offers & trades. I am a car enthusiast and enjoy anything without stigma. I have 29k in parts alone, and 5k+ in labor, not including my own hours. I am asking 25k respectfully. I am considerate of the issues that need to be addressed and am willing to negotiate.
