Thinking about ordering up a 427 for the V. Just curious of what you guys thought a ls6 with a maggie on it is worth? Or what just the maggie is worth?

 

[shadybx7]

What is the mileage on the LS6? and for how many miles has it been rocking miss maggie?


LS7 swap :cloud9: how much does a LS7 swap cost anyway? get any quotes yet or are you doing it yourself?

 

[MauiV]

Mid-low miles with complete boltons and Maggie I would say $10k

 

[Jayrcr3]

Its worth about $100. Will you take a check?

 

[814V]

i got $314.76.. shipped of course


honestly that would be an awesome swap.. keep us updated on that

 

[trambow]

Ls6 has 33,000 miles and maggie has about 15,000 miles on it. How about $100 cash no checks, LOL. I was quoted at $14,000 for the 427 guys said he promises 600 at the motor.

Maybe this will give you and idea.

Cleveland pick-a-part is trying to sell an '05 LS6 & transmission with 18k miles out of a V for $6250 on ls1tech and everyone is giving him shit because the price is way too high.

I'd say the maggie & engine combo is more like $8k together.

does that price include removal and re-installation?

 

[AlmostAV]

thats awfully expensive IMO. Why not punch out a 408 for waaaay cheaper with some nasty heads and cam youll be cranking more than 600 at the motor.

but on a different note...Id consider buying the maggie? Did you purchase it new?

Yes he quoted that price at turn key. Ok well who want's a new ls6 with a maggie?

Yeah that might be another route to. I purchased the car with it on there. I know it only has about 15,000 miles on it though.

 

[814V]

14K for the 427 right? new, used?

 

[trambow]

14K for the 427 right? new, used?

Yeah that is for a brand new one, custom built. He did say he will be using a cast block though, I can upgrade to aluminum for extra $1,5000 witch is 40lbs lighter.

You can build an LS3 stroker for less and still end up with a 427. I was going to do that but didn't. You have to go with a 4.125" or 4.250" stroke or something like that. I did a lot of reading up on the subject but I dont remember most of it. Now installed to boot may be worth the money just to save a little mod hell, but you WILL have some even if you dont even touch it!

 

[stuckey]

how much for the maggie???

 

[trambow]

how much for the maggie???

Make me an offer?

 

[Kmajecki]

Am i the only one whose diff can't handle 400hp at the crank??? jk As long as you drive it right it should be a sick car after the swap. Good luck!

 

[CadiBlk]

Did you originally buy an sans maggie V, then sell and buy a maggied V and now you are ditchin the maggie for a 427? Sounds like some car A.D.D. to me.

Yeah, lol just can't get enough power.

 

[jweymar]
