Asking price? What all does the engine have done to it to make it "Ready for boost"?

For these motors, all they really need are rod bolts and bearings. It has ARP Rod Bolts and Clevite 77 H-series main and rod bearings like I stated in the OP. I personally know multiple people running the same setup on 6-700+ whp single turbo cars and have never once had an issue with the motors.

Also, from the pictures I have put the original shift knob back on and it has a flip up touch screen ipod/dvd/nav/etc head unit

Nice looking car. It's hard to bid off a picture without more detail of the car. Mileage? Miles on motor, and issues, clean title ect.

Car just hit 143k miles but will all the upgrades, not much of the car has all those miles. Motor had 8k on it before taken apart. Only has 1k since bearings, bolts, new gaskets, sensors, etc etc. Clean title. Let me know if you guys want any other details or pictures, thanks.

I love the car but it doesn't have the original ls1 motor,and it's pretty high mileage. Any issues whatsoever? Let's work something out.
