Default Lt4 10k miles

I'm bouncing an idea around and wondered what a person could sell a low milage stock lt4 z06 long block for? I'm thinking of going lme 400 or 427 with a Magnuson 2650 , cam and all the goodies for a reliable 1000 who. I've heard the lt4 is at its safety area under 850 whp.

My buddy bought one last year with cam, and a Magnuson 2650, Ktech TB and pulley, supposedly with 900 to the ground. He paid $18k
The guy drove it 1 week with the new mods and totaled it.

Most everyone that I have talked to says the stock block is good for up to 1000whp. RPM, Vengeance and LMR all have stated they don't like to push much past 1000whp on stock block. My car was built by Vengeance and is on its way back there today for Magnuson 2650, Fore triple, and Toyos. It already has their stage 5 package, and this round of upgrades will put it up to 950-1000whp on e85. They said it is fine at that power level, but once past 1000whp then you need built engine, transmission, axles, etc.

I've got an LME stroker engine and I'm very happy with it.
