Well I am pondering selling my CA swap. Just wanted to know how much I could get for it.

Here is the parts list when it is completed:

Rebuilt to factory specsAll new gasketsCP Pistons std. boreBrand new Toga HP main and rod bearingsARP HeadboltsRebuilt head with 3 angle valve jobJWT 300zx ValvespringsNew water pumpNew Oil pumpCleaned out stock Intake ManifoldNew Spark Plugs, colder heat rangeS15 T28 BB Turbo with Polished Compressor HousingForge Motorsport Wastegate Actuator AdjustableForge Motorsport BOVForge Motorsport MBCSSAuto Mani and Stock ManifoldSSAuto DumptubeXS Power Front Mount a little banged up but still good550cc injectorsROM Tuned ECUZ32 MAF with Apexi FilterCA18DET transmission with Spec Stg 2 clutch, most likely will be brand new Competition Clutch Stage 3 by the time motor is done.S13 driveshaft with 4.36VLSD

Pretty much the full drivetrain is for sale, I am pondering an LS1 in my S13.So you would pretty much be getting a fully rebuilt zero mile motor with forged pistons, hd valvesprings to rev the motor freely, decent sized turbo good for 300-320whp, transmission and differential with great gearing for road racing or drifting, let me know the type of price I could sell all this for? YOur advice means a lot, and please dont lowball the price.

Thats good I was thinking close to 4k, pretty much it would be like C-Rads setup plus CP Pistons, bigger turbo, bigger injectors, and a little more head work. When motor is built should be good for 400+ whp on properly sized turbo.

yup ~ I'd probably cap it at $3k with that setup, $4k if it had a 2871 or 28RS already on it - you'd need bigger injectors though, to run 400hp, but you know...

I like the fact that the engine is built to the 300whp range... to me, thats perfect for an S13 ~ good luck, let us know if you come up with a number
