I saw that in the 2008 GM performance parts catalog link. Good stuff.

It's a limited edition reproduction of a classic, that's why it's $21,000.

obvioulsy you could build that power for less, but its for the people who like that limited run/GM crate stuff. Like the 572

Sounds like a dealer created price. I seen what we pay and it suggested no retail price.

And yes, I posted this a month ago when we got the bulletin.

If you want one, let me know - I can do better than that price above - :roxor:

I just pulled it from the press release, I'm sure dealers are flexible on the price.
I now see Tim posted something about it in November, this was the official release I saw

Not in the market for one but at least some people have common sense..21K for a motor...just a motor..thats a little much..even if it is a remake of one of GM's most powerful engines. Unless your building a car that needs that engine and want new thats the only reason. But for 21K I could do alot of damage with another engine..like a 502 Rat motor or something..

For 12k you can get a 572 ci. BB 620 HP.

 

[Z28 Autobot]

[o2camaross]

and for 13k you can get the 720 hp 572

You guys are missing the point of this motor package

I get the point..it's along the same lines of paying like $40,000 for a classic car vs $20,000 for a modern version of the same nameplate that's faster, "safer" and gets better gas mileage.

I know you get it - It wasn't directed at you Wrangler jeans boy

I'm wearing Faded Glory right now. :\

It's also the same reason why I would pay $60,000 for a rebuilt Delorean if I had the $$.

update - block is aluminum - press release I pulled the info from was incorrect stating it was a cast iron block

 

[Z28 Autobot]

No I get the point and what Lu said is exactly what my thoughts are..
