It seems like a good idea.
- ECU work - 1500
- Exhaust manifold work - 500
- (NA V8) Motor and parts - 3K ish
- Misc (pallet, strapping) - 200
- Labor (Instructions, fab work to put it all together, wiring, shipping ready) - 1000 ish maybe
Given that the motor will most likely have issues when I buy (ex. missing coils, cracked vacuum lines from sitting in the sun etc) I could probably do $6K which would break the work and parts down a little.
I could even do a rental with deposit type deal with DAS. Have one or two as spares, you pay me for it and I return the money when you return DAS...
How would this sound for people?
