I am trying to see if it is worth fixing the LS1 on my car, or selling it as essentially a 'roller' with an engine in it, due to needing lifters and cam, and getting an econobox (Fiesta ST).

It is a 2000 M6 hard top, ordered with NO options (has crank windows, no power anything, and not even a rear window defroster!), the A/C is out of the car to the dash stuff.

The (black) paint is decent for a car with these miles, and it has;

Pro 5.0 shifter

Koni DA fronts with GC/Eibach coil over conversion (650#)

Koni SA rear with Strano Vogtlands (150#)

Strano 35mm hollow front bar with UMI alloy mounts, 1LE 21mm rear bar with ES mounts

ES endlinks all around

Random Tech adjustable torque arm (but stock, trans mounting point)

Turn One pump w/alloy pulley

Ram aluminum flywheel, LS7 clutch with Tick Performance clutch speed bleeder

3.73s with Eaton carbon clutch pack Posi

LT1 radiator

Odyssey/Die Hard group 78 AGM battery

Sparco model 383 suede steering wheel installed on a Momo 2401 hub

2 sets of wheels, both 16x8, with almost new street tires mounted (BFG Comp 2s/Super Sport all seasons)

any thoughts??

A running car is always easier to sell and worth more than a roller. By worth more I mean you take a big hit in value for the fact it isn't running, usually more that the cost of the repairs.

If you can do the work yourself replacing the cam & lifters isn't that hard. If you look around you can find lightly used parts for a good price.

As far as hardtop vs t-top I don't think the hardtop is worth a lot more than the t-top.

Just my opinion.

Good luck
