Default Re: value of a ZL 1 clone with a real ZL1 motor

[ QUOTE ]
If I'm building a clone the last thing I would put in it would be an original ZL1 motor. Personally if I built a clone it would be to have fun, and not worry about blowing up an engine. I would build it to hammer and incorporate some new technology. Why waste a valuable engine, and not be able to have thrash it....

Can't agree more... Not just engines, I don't get putting real parts on clones. Reproduction parts are perfect in this case. Especially the high dollar items. Would be nice if the real items got reunited with the cars they came from. But its all up to the current owners I guess...
