This isn't about old vs. new. ANYthing that was hurt badly enough to put a hole through a block and put a hole through a head is not worth nearly as much as a non-repaired engine to me; I am sure some people would pay that much. I understand what shit for these engines cost, and I think it's cool there is one here on CR for sale (or soon to be I guess). When, or if, this is posted in the For Sale section, I'll personally delete any comments questioning the price.

You asked for opinions. Mine is this: when I can buy an engine that has never been hurt with 1,000 miles on it for $7500 shipped (so, $7000 picked up probably), $6500 is not a good deal for one that has had a hole in the block and re-sleeved. The other comparison, for the modded LS7, would be $8000 picked up vs. your $7000. So, again, your's is cheaper, but in my mind, it's like buying a salvage titled car. It just isn't worth the same and can't be compared apples-to-apples. Not trying to get in a pissing match man, the LS7 is badass in any form. Edit: shiping not included in the $7500 motor.

Understood. But, here is your "competition" - Never hurt LS7, with aftermarket cam and supporting mods for $8500, and that is shipped to your door. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-parts-sale-wanted/1963803-fs-2007-ls7-longblock.html And, from our fellow member - 1k mile LS7 shipped for $7500 http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-parts-sale-wanted/2028467-wts-1k-mile-ls7-long-block-minus-intake.html

Since this isn't the for sale section, and you're just asking opinions, that's twice what I would ever pay for an engine that's been 50% re-sleeved and had a hole in the block and head.

NW scored their touchdown on a sneaky, (well-played), hurry-up 2-3 yard run. They deserved everything they got after that.

Fake punts, going long, not taking a knee... ABOUT TIME.

Those are almost as wide as my rear tires. Do they make a 465 wide?

Great reply. Serioulsly, your help is appreciated.

Browsing CL today, I see this picture, and since it's halftime, I figured I would waste 2 minutes and post it. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f165/PLATINUMPAPI/P1010077.jpg

"Welcome to the Arena. We will spraypaint the exterior of a block, install a $69 chrome engine kit and tell you about the freshly rebuilt engine."

It's at the Arena. Ruuuuuuuuunnnnnn away.

Good, I don't want to look for it.

Is that a challenge?

I have chosen to leave it open so that others may learn from your drunken anti-humor. Speaking of that, must go on beer run for OSU game...

Repost, yet I can't find the old thread.

AWESOMENESS!!! May I close this now?

I bet he knew that.

I like em.

Welcome.

I bet you get tired of walking around on plastic tarps all day.

Ha, I understand what you're going through. I often miss the GTZ I had when I was younger. People can't understand why.

Yes, tightening the nut will pull it through. You can just flip the lug nut around so the tapered part is towards you.

As already stated...
