Don't know if I have the right forum, but if I were to drop a Lt1 (from a vette or 95 camaro) and transmission into a 1991 RS v6, how much could I get out of it if I were to sell it considering the new engine would have about 60-70k miles and the interior is in great shape with no body problems etc...? Thanks.

Book value..... not much! But to an enthusiast who appreciates the LT1 in a 3rd generation, could be worth something (but again, not much.... especially with the 'dawn' of the LS1).

Mods to cars generally do not increase thier Blue Book value. The only way to really sell a vehicle like that for close to what it is worth is to find an enthusiast that knows the value of what's been done.
