Find a way to list it over in the desert countries, bahrain, dubai, saudi etc. Those guys will buy any and all things fast, and they drop cash ! One of those dudes came to my town and bought 2 of the fastest local street cares while he was having his brand new mustang converted to a 25.5. Lmr sold their old drag car to one of those guys too.

Dunno man, your gonna need a 25.5, new injectors, new fuel system, new turbo, your talking more cubes, bigger and better heads which will probably mean you can't keep your LS6 intake...lot of stuff to do, which you would obviously be doing to whatever you start on if you sold it.

Do you want a different body style, brand, something with a more radical visual shock and awe factor?

T6 100mm+ turbo, 400+cubes, LS7 heads, and a engine driven fuel pump and new injectors would be a direction you could go and I think Phil has his aeromotive engine driven pump and some injectors for sale since he's switching to methanol.

LOL Middleeastcraiglist
Kempf's old car went to the land down under australia If I'm not mistaken.

I'll check with some guys in Bahrain or Qatar you won't be selling the car to anyone in Kuwait or Here in Saudi Arabia since we can't import cars under 2006 unless someone is looking to run it only at 1/4 or put the car in a museum or something

Don't sell it man you will regret it just go ahead and make the new changes

Very nice car! Saw they had you in my new issue on GM High Tech!! Kenny Duttwiller deals with them a lot. He has did a lot in the Buick Grandnational community. A lot of his customers are from the Middle East!

It's a TTI kit. I think it's a rearward facing header that wraps a pipe forward under the kmember
