Yeah...ok. Do some research. The car itself is usually valued at $0 for these kinds of swaps, and people ask for around 50-60% of what they put into it.

Go ahead, prove me wrong.

Me? No not mad just didn't see karack's post till I posted found it Funny as hell.
I agree with RIWWP I wouldn't take a 8 with a LS conversion if it where give to me. You want big muscle buy big muscle or waste you $$$$$ on a LS conversion. Different strokes for different folks.

Agreed, I'm just giving him a chance to respond. I try to avoid just closing a thread after posting as if I'm trying to "have the last word". I'm more than happen to let him have that dubious honor.

I dont need to, but its money that isnt really counted for and I wont miss. Im not a smartass, I just am confident in my knowledge. I wasnt being smart, I was simply doing the math for RIWWP. I know hes a very knowledgeable person when it comes to these cars
