What mod package to the motor? What was done to the car body itself? That would determine the actual value. Did you contact LPE to make sure it's one of theirs they did the work on? Some people do their own work, that's not as valuable as if it were done by LPE.

Looks like the mileage is good.

the engines are sweet.

LPE does a full balance/blueprint when they build a motor. Tell us more about the engine? is it a full LPE small block? or just some bolt ons?

Any paperwork to prove an LPE engine?

Normally, mods don't increase the value of a car, but some will stop it from depreciating quite so fast.

Current pricing:

LT1 350 Crate motors are $9,100.00 or $9,700.00 for an automatic.

LT1 383 Crate motors are $14,320.00, add $3k for upgraded automatic.
