I have seen them go for anywhere 3k-5k for one that is from a legit seller.

Keep in mind that you will have to get rid of the VVT by switching lifters, cam, and it will need a 24tooth if going in fbody plus other wiring modifications. It is aluminum

If you want to use your pcm with that motor you will need to swap the variable valve timing cam, and lifters. But I wouldnt recommend using your stock ls1 cam with that much more displacement 5.7 to 6.2, youd want to move more air with larger lift cam. The lifters should be replaced with new also, not neccassary but a good idea

You will have to remove the crank to have the 24 reluctor ring fitted.( Machine shop put mine on for 40 bucks)

The only wiring changes would be the cam sensor harness will need an extention and knock sensor extention ( sdpc sells one that does both in the same harness)

Also you will need an l76 intake or something else because the newer heads on an l92 will not accommadate the ls1/ls6 style intake

Here is some backround on the L92 https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...-l92-info.html
