there are still some crate motors out there (factory new) but they go from 12 k on up from what i have seen. mark haibeck rebuilds i think they are 10-11 k . from time to time a low milage used one comes up and from what i have seen they are 6k and up .hope this helps

there is a 405 motor on e-bay....16k is the buy it now price I think? It's a box motor, never been installed.

Thanks for the feedback. Reason I ask is there are two for sale over here for around the $15000 each mark. [Aussie dollar]. Evidently very low miles but complete. Thats about $13000 US.
Cheers Ernie :cheers:

that price for a used one is awful steep in my opinion . you dont know how long it hasnt run and what condition it is in . if it hasnt had oil put in the cylinders and turned over once a month or so there could be a rust issue . jmho

The LT5 engine is built for endurance while highly spirited driving is encouraged. The engine will last a VERY long time if maintained properly. There is little reason to get a backup engine...unless for extreme modification.

For 16K throw in another couple of thousand and buy the rest of the car.

That would be a good idea, however probably only 10 or 12 ZR1 s in Australia, owning two would be quite an achievement.

Hey bradslt5, you are only four posts away from reaching LT5 status here on the board.

What's the magic number for LT5 status? I worked hard to own an LT5; don't like being labeled an LT4!
