I'd rather spend 10k on mods & leave iron lion in there if it's already got a v8 in it.

If plan on keeping it no point asking peeps what it's worth just get it evaluated & insured.

Id definitely keep the Holden 5 litre in it. Aside from keeping it original those engines will be sought after in the future being a genuine Holden V8 rather than “just a chev”.

I do like the LS in my VE but they are like arseholes, everyones got one!

This is true, the Aussie V8 is already becoming sought after and the way I see it they are only going to become more sought after in years to come.

A full tank of fuel can increase the value considerably.

I regret getting rid of mine about 8 years ago. Had a Holden 5 litre out of my VS Statesman. I had got rid of the rest of the car to the wreckers a couple of years prior as I moved house and didn’t have room to keep the project car. I had rebuilt the engine myself to put in the car but ended up getting rid of it for 800 bucks because it was taking up too much room in the garage.

The bloke who bought it was putting it in a Nissan Patrol so it’s probably still out there powering said Patrol.

Depends on the person...I was considering adding into my valuation a full tank of fuel and 12 months rego, but thought that was being too scabby....Now I'm thinking I should have :)
