That's an awful lotta coin for a little bit of motor. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] These days you can buy alot of different mega cube full race motors for less than $20K, and they'll make upwards of 1000 hp!!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I'd be willing to bet you could get that kind of power from a naturally aspirated LS-6. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif[/img]

Doesn't seem like a real hot ticket IMO. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

You could EASILY get that kind of power from an LS-6 (either the 1970 or the 2003 version!). I'd say the Pure Stock LS-6 cars are not too far off that number, and they are running through the stock exhaust manifolds...

Here's one for 500 bucks less than this auction:

You could even get S/N 001 if you want it.

Still a lot of cash for an engine.
