SignUp Now!That car would cost more then 30k to replicate with out a motor.....
Not to be a hater, but for 30k+ people are looking for a stage motor. It will be hard to move a 109 block car for that much money even if it was done right. I'd say mid 20's and it would move.

I just don't see why you wouldn't have gone for a stage or TA block if you put that much money time and effort into the car.
Think of it like this... By the time you sold a good 109 block core and include the cost of the girdle and machine work it probably would have only cost 2500$ more to have put in a BRAND NEW TA aluminum block and run a 14 bolt head. That's not that much more if you have put 80 grand into the car.
Good 109 block would bring 400$
RJC Girdle cost 400$
All the machine work and girdle install would run at least 600-700$
I'd say this car could/will eventually bring 30-32k, but it would have flown off the shelf for 35-40k if it had a TA block and 14 bolt head.
No one gives a chit what you think. The motor was bought complete douchbag from a PROVEN race car that went 9.20 from an engine builder that has the fastest TSM car in the history of the world. How many stage or TA motors have been 9.20? STFU and go play in ur sand box you little troll. Ur so fuken clueless it's almost amusing....I just don't see why you wouldn't have gone for a stage or TA block if you put that much money time and effort into the car.

No need to trash the thread with your two posts. I doubt you would appreciate it if the tide's were turned.
Brett if you want to start another thread let me know.
Spoke with an interested buyer this morning from the West Caost and states he is sending me a deposit today. Have not recieved it yet but when I do the car will be SALE PENDING.
wasn't he the one to send you a deposit second... a price you agreed upon, now the first buyer backed out and your raising the price

No, not even close. He was just another tire kicker.....wasn't he the one to send you a deposit second... a price you agreed upon, now the first buyer backed out and your raising the price

Looks like the car is going to the West coast.
