Re: ZL-1 Motor
I remember watching #1 sell for around 55k so I thought maybe 32k was a real bargain?
  32k is what they're asking, they may take less.

Re: ZL-1 Motor
I just do not see how these motors can be worth $32k a year or two from now. About the only thing they have in common with a real Zl-1 is that they are made out of aluminum and they are the same size but about everything else is different. The ram-jet ZL-1 did not have much of a following a few years after their release and it does not appear that they have helped the value of the cars that were resold with these motors in them.

Re: ZL-1 Motor
Don't forget that the new motors are oval port.

Re: ZL-1 Motor
I would rather have your motor over the limited edition Zl-1 at any time. Nice carpet in your shop Albert, I have to walk around on bare concrete in my garage.

Re: ZL-1 Motor
Al - that aluminum sure is pretty!
Hey Mark...I got some nice vintage orange shag carpet on my garage floor, even have the classic "shag rake" to make it look nice - HA!...people look at me like I'm a moron when I tell people I have to vacuum out my garage and rake the carpet...don't know why? Oh - since this thread is about ZL-1 motors...I'm not a fan of the "new" ZL-1 engines...I like GM Performance Parts' write-up on the engine and state how this new ZL-1 is grossly underated at 430hp just like the original...hmmm

Re: ZL-1 Motor
Here is one for 23K. Still seems pretty pricey.
