well if the guy does sell it for that $...it is what I paid a few years ago for a new one (and T stud) from thegearbox.com so you basically could not do better

like anything else in the market place...supply & demand. There is no more supply and demand is still there so the $ will keep going up.

Like the LT4 KM for example.

that and a LT1 clutch fork can fetch $300 from someone who has to have it

Not saying I agree with these $...but stating if someone has something someone else really wants and can't get anywhere else....sky is the limit of the sell $

Because of the scarcity of the forks, I'm not willing to separate it. best I could do is $400 plus the ride for the entire assy.

I was lucky enough to score a near perfect one with the bolt about 3 years ago and now seeing how hard they are to come by it will take some decent money to get it off my hands, not what Hawks wants but still in the hundreds.

Another option, LS1 Clutch....

Ditch the LT1 slave, bellhousing, and clutch assembly and go with the LS1 Slave bellhousing and clutch assembly. It's been done.

That also requires a new input shaft and the front trans case.

Seems like it can be done for those wanting to put an LT1 T56 behind an LS1:

but the reverse is just as hard, maybe harder. Here's an old post with some visual reference for the differences:

I'm thinking the bellhousing is the toughest part to make work. IDK. Tick makes one:
