asking $7,000 after i get it tunned. or 6500 before.

the story of the car, i bought it and it had a slight tick like most LS1s but this one stayed around longer than most and came and went at random points so i got a deal on a 6.0 and started to do the swap after the car started smoking and fouling #7s plug really bad, it made 364 on the dyno in that condition with the LS1... after pulling the motor i noticed the "knock" was the EGR tube rattling around in the header and theats also where my exhaust leak was coming from. but that didnt explain the smoking and plugs fouling. so i kept going with the swap, pulled the heads off and there it was, ringland gone off #7 from after inspecting the tune was WAY too much timing for a LS1 sub 40*. so it got the 6.0 and all of the cam, heads, pump and springs from the LS1. i think this car will make ~415 after being tunned if not more, im taking it to tune it next week.
