What's a 422 Worth??? Guys what do you think a 422 LS1 is worth? I might have to part out the TA & was trying to figure out what its worth. I was kind of thinking around 10K or so with a donor motor. What do you guys think? Just wondering...
It only has 150 miles on it <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Re: What's a 422 Worth??? Jason I think 10K is fair. I'm doing a buildup with a C5R block and I know what parts cost. Plus you spend over 2K in just the resleeving of the block. For a completely stock motor that is fair in my opinion. Someone will jump on it eventually its just hard to sell something so pricey.

Re: What's a 422 Worth??? I wouldn't take less than $10,000 and a stock engine for the 422. It's a damn good price for an engine that has a whopping 150 miles on it, and someone WILL take advantage of the good price in time. It cost me $8,800 to build a 383 cid LS1 close to two years ago, and I did a LOT of shopping around for good deals. We all know what a 422 cid costs new. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Re: What's a 422 Worth??? Tel you what I would buy it if I had that kind of change. What compression does it have? Maybe a turboed guy would want to get it <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Re: What's a 422 Worth??? I'm buying a Z06, dont worry eventually the Z06 will have a 422 also, just not for a year or 2. Gotta build up some $$ $ $ $ $ <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

OK - I get it. Z06 with 422 = one seriously radical ride. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
Though you can't exactly call our cars sleepers, you will lose even more of that with a Z06. On the other hand, you will get sex appeal, phenomenal handling, and unbelievably fast acceleration. I think I understand what you want <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" />
Sometime down the road (= 1-2 years from now) I may do the same thing. But I am also wondering - can I get a Z06, put in a 422, and then maybe a twin-turbo on top of that <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0"> I guess I want to find out how much horsepower I can get before lifting the heads.
