Oh, it's all polished and ported. come with wiring harness & everything to do the swap. so... how much should I sell that ?

 

why are you selling it???

 

he has a lt1 engine

 

Always a good reason......

 

you could sell it to me for oh lets say 5 dollers

 

but seriously, how much could that be worth ?

 

500-600??? US Bones

 

Now why can't I get my TPI to look like that??
Too lazy I guess...

 

is that painted or powdercoated? I'd say from $400 for painted to $750 if its powder coated.

 

Damn I wish I had money for it, that is the most beautiful thing I have seen in a long time.

 

Agree, maybe even more.

What is the condition of the wire harrness? And you said that it is everything to do the swap, is that the brain box as well? Hawks sell the whole motor starting at 700. I think $300-500 depending on what the con is of everything else.

 

Ok well it's been fully polished and plenum and base painted and then cleat coated many times.

The intake manifold is fully ported aswell the runners.

it's comes with injectors, maf, ecm, wiring harness, distributor, coil, egr, new cap & rotor, all intake sensors, 52 mm trottle body, new spark plug wire.

I guess I could say it's complete, except for the waterneck and TPI intake rubber boot.

 

By the way, people have sent me email to know how I painted it that nice.

It has to be polished to obtain anything like that. the paint that was use is a new product that the local hardware store have. it's Anodized Blue. I'll get the real name tonight.

 

Blue is my favorite color. I love the way blue looks with something polished. That looks great. I even have a blue and silver combo in my engine bay despite the fact that my car is marron and gold.

 

wow, that's nice!

 

Looks nice and all but I'm sure you wont get as much as you could. If you include the ECM, wires, Injectors, and of course you are including the manifold. Then you might just get it up to a grand for it. Oh yeah a quick port and polish would make it worth more. I dont know if they are ported yet, didnt see it. didnt look to hard either....YEAH i'm a lazy *****.

 

Like I said, how much you could get will depend on the cond of everything. I still think it looks great and I could see paying 500-800 for that because of the intake looking as great as it does. Nice job, I can only imagine what the rest of the car looks like! Good luck on getting as much as possible for it!!

 

Well my car isn't that great, looks like **** to me. I'm not kidding when sayin that. For some strange reason I really really don't like the way it looks like ,

looks dirty to me

 

Engine degreeser and black magic works real well.

 

Keep us informed. I might be interested in it. My buddy wants me to convert his 73 Vette' to TPI. We've done a couple already, came out awsome.

 

Here's the stuff I used.

 

I sold my TPI setup for $500. Had everything but the fuel pump to do a carb to TPI conversion.
Mine was an 87 converted to a 90-92 Speed Density.


If you have everything, you shoudl get at least $500, but it may be hard with all these LT1's selling really cheap.

 

Ok guys I'm selling the whole thing of ebay next weekwithout wiring harness since it's too damage.

If someone wants it. 550$ Firm , no neg. I'll sell it to you guys, so email me quick !

Don't forget, all the work has been done by hand so it's not perfect but it's really nice.

 

Zepher, do you still have the air intake that shows on the last pic posted ???

If so, wanna sell it to me ?

 

That Dupli - Color brand is very good for spray painting from a bottle. I love the way it applies. I once sprayed a piece of scrap metal with no sanding or preperation and the paint is still holding on strong.

 

nope, I traded that for my LT4 Hotcam and springs.
I should have kept it since I am going to run my LT4 in Speed Density mode, reason I traded was because of the MAF sensor but since I am not using MAF I could have used my SLP Dual CAI.

 

that looks fantastic!
how does that paint react to heat?
it getsvery hot under the hood of my bird

Id say slap it on ebay with no reserve. Im sure you will be surprised.

 

The paint has not faded and does not react to heat, I putted in the oven at 180 c. 1 hour and it's holding fine.


Zepher , I would have kept it if I were you ! it was a really clean and nice setup!

 

Looks really good.

 

how did u paint that? right outta the can?

 

ninjairoc, almost ! gotta polish it first .

 

looks good!!

 

Ya lue is awesome.... Im goan powdercoat the next TPI i ebay in this color.

I hate spray paint, but that Dupli Engine enamal works great. I only applied one coat to some of the brakets in the engine bay and the paint is still holding on pretty well.


TPI looks great.

 

I'm selling the TPI , if you want it , bid on it !
