Sell it complete first, long block. You could also offer it short block. I wouldnt part it out any further then that, short block.

What kind of money are you wanting to get for it complete? PM me the details.

I'm same boat.
mine has less then 20 run's on it and I just put 1/2 of what I'm asking freshing it up.
lot's of ppl. have seen it run and no bite's on it .
so I either keep it and not build a diff. engine or try to part it out and hope for the best.

first turn off for me was the "iron heads"...


I sold my Mirada roller "as is" for $7500 in 2012... it just happened to have a well worn RB 498 that had just run a string of low 9.9 passes at March Meet two weeks before the sale. Made it perfectly clear to the buyer that the motor owed nobody ANYTHING! ( ...it's still in the car)

...it sucked selling it, well built D-60 rear, ladder bar, full cage, awesome roller trans, but the market isn't huge for anything Mirada.

i agree with the iron head thing but they flow just as well as alum. and the cly. get a better burn rate with the iron heads.
I bought the iron heads when that was all you could use in KOS mod. street.

Yeah but for what brad is asking for that motor one could buy a set of alum and either sell the cast or use on a street strip car ! If I had the coin laying around I'd buy it !

That's what I mean for the cost of the heads and what you have in them, why not buy the whole dog and pony ? Either way use the heads sell the short block or use it in something else ! If only I had the cash.
