Default Need Input on What a Vortech Blower might Be Worth

Hey guys,
I have an older Vortech Blower that I picked up a couple years ago, but haven't had the time and $$ to install it. It's kind of strange in that there's no markings on the ID tag; except that it was from Carroll Supercharging Co.

I trust the guy that I got it from, and he says that it came off a 2001 Z06, and that it works fine. I also contacted Greg at Blowerworks and he said that it looks like a V2 S trim.

Anyway...I'm leaning towards selling it, but would like some input on what it might be worth, and what I can do to check it. Here's some pics of it...let me know what you think.

If it were me, I would start at what you paid for it then go from there.

Thanks Chris. Before selling it, is there any way that I can check it sans installing it?

Not sure if A&A offer an inspection service on heads, might have to send it to Vortech.

Call vortech explain your situation and see if they can help you identify it.

I bought a good working Novi2000 for $1100 shipped (very good deal) a couple years ago that is still going strong. I also sold a Procharger D1sc for $1800 shipped one year ago. I would guess its worth somewhere between those numbers I mentioned.
