Default LS1 question

I have an LS1 in my C5. has 75k on it. runs great, has strong cam, and reworked heads with everything (porting, polishing, HD springs...etc etc....car is VERY radical

im getting ready to pull it out and put my car back to stock. (tired of the noise and constant attention to driving it)

question is...whats a fair/quick sale as is price i should ask.....$700-$800?

Im not sure what a good price is for it but I would give you $800 for it and pick it up depending on what all comes with it Just let me know what works out!

You could always check ls1tech.com or ebay to see what the going rates are for what you want to sell. LS1 prices vary according to condition, mods, accessories, etc. It sounds like yours is a good motor but if you sell it without the accessories, harness and computer it will be worth a bit less than a comparable one with everything included.

Back in Nov of last year my daughters 2001 Formula LS-1 threw a rod and I got a real steal on a 57K mile 2000 Z-28 LS-1 engine from a wrecking yard for $1000 dollars. It did not include the accessories but it did have the harness and computer and complete wiring with it. Most 2000 to 2002 LS-1's here in Texas run $1500-2000 dollars. Your engine is a super fair price.
