That's what? 4k for motor, 1k for electronics and 1k for drive-train? (I ignored ITB)
Got the paperwork for the motor?
Mileage?
May be a stretch. (Beast engine, tho haha)
With that much work already into it, whats the need for a v8?
I thought I was already to far into my build to consider an LS1/5.0, and I'm still rockin bandaids haha

$3000 for motor, $1000 for electronics, $2000 for drivetrain, $750 for itb kit.
motor is not even built yet but its going to machine shop early next week. 0 mileage, read first post! v8 because im getting free labor
also, dont forget that motor comes with a shitload of other stuff like radiator, starter, exhaust, etc. thats about $800 on its own thrown in for free pretty much.

i can sell everything separately. just need to make sure that everything is gone so until i have commitments for EVERYTHING, nothing will be shipped or even billed. to make it easier, shoot me an EMAIL (no, not a private message) and tell me what you are interested in.
and my email is urbansoot / gmail [] com

He offered to sell my miataturbo.net decals for my windshield and side windows.
I even offered to give him MORE money if the decals ever arrived at my house, and he offered to throw in "bonus" stickers for being so late on shipping the stuff. I never received anything, and he still has my money.

Urbansoot did the exact same thing to me. BE CAREFUL!!!! I'd only deal with him in person and inspect the parts THOROUGHLY before he leaves with your hard earned $$$.
