As they say....
It is worth whatever someone will pay for it. :wink:

The sad thing about engines, they quickly fall into the "used" catagory, soon after you fire it up.

Special head or star head? Pics and numbers.
I would pay between $200 and $2000 depending on ALOT of details.
I would actually pay more for it apart than together if its good. :D :D :D Mark

But why take one apart that "runs awesome" ? Just wondering. Just after the main parts? (head, block, caps etc)

So you can physically see the actual condition of its innards.

Aluminium block SL6 engines use a "high accuracy" cast iron cylinder head, those heads had the word "SPECIAL" or a star shape, cast onto them.
