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

It's easy to get caught up in percentages. Pay an extra 1% for a new car, and we're looking at $ 250.00. Pay an extra 100% for a new suit, and we're looking at $250.00. Pay double for a new suit? "NO WAY, IT'S AN EXTRA $250!!" But pay 1% more for a new car, and we say, "Hey, it's $250."

Add 20% to the value of a Z/28 for original motor = $20,000

Add 20% to the value of a ZL-1 for original motor = $200,000

Who's going to pay $200,000 for a motor?
