6 speed manual,
torsen lsd

Good luck with the sale. As far as selling it cause of your wedding plans, I told my fiancé (before we even got engaged) that if she married me, she will posses my heart, but my veins flow gasoline, and I'll be that way no matter if she's with me or not. I have all kinds of vehicles and parts all over, but you gotta just get her the 1 vehicle that she wants and she'll be content.

There were only 7500 10AE's built, but I am still all for modding one. In this situation, if it were my car, this would be a complete drivetrain part out to make room for an LS swap. 1 of 7500? How about 1 of 1. I support taking limited production vehicles and making them stand out even more. What's cooler than a Lingenfelter Twin Turbo Vette? A Lingenfelter Twin Turbo Vette that was converted to a massive single turbo and makes over 1200 hp to the wheels.

Several relatively easy fixes. First though, the whole 10AE thing? Never gonna raise the price, they plain made too damn many, everywhere, world wide. Now to the good, A low mile, like 40-60k 99-05 engine can be had for as little as $800. Pull the motor and drop in a used engine (ThePartsGroup had an 02' with 40k on it for $850 + shipping, they are in Alabama, but I've got to believe there are similar operations in Cali). Keep the pics of the rebuilt title and all the photos of the restoration to roadworthy. Even still, many banks will shy away from loaning on a car that is rebuilt and over ten years old. So either you part the car, which will make you Bueno more cash, ie: six speeds are $650-800, torsen $800, 10ae seats in good shape $400, Good solid rolling chasis, ideal for those V8 swap guys, $2000 minimum, that Voodoo kit, is worth about $2000 by itself. Wanna go further? You could part the entire car down to the frame for at least $4k. Wanna sell it out right, a clean low mile 10 ae is about $7000 now, -$1500 for rebuilt title - $1500 for bad engine (you have to add labor to the parts in this case), + 1000 for the turbo kit (you are MUCH BETTER OFF SELLING SEPERATELY) and you can expect offers between 4000 and 5000 dollars. GLW whatever you end up deciding to do. All the numbers are based on actual experience in the Southeastern Market, your actual mileage may vary.
