The price on your engine/trans combo seems very high.

Whats a 2002 LS1 T/56 go for now days?  It has a brand new ls6 clutch and flywheel (~5 miles or so), as well as a stand alone harness and PC flash if it matters...

Thanks!

Finish it and drive it, look at it this way, the FD will be worth about the same or more in 3 years, the Cayman will drop about $15K or more in value in 3 years besides what else you could do with the extra $35K that you won't end up spending on the Porsche.

^ I generally agree with the above, but it is a daily driver. Having modern safety features in a daily driver is tough to quantify.

Finish it up! You will have the rest of your llife to buy a Cayman. However, you may never have another opportunity to build such a sweet ride.  :drive: BTW where in VA are you?

I would say closer to 3.5-4K depending on how clean it is.  Trans alone will bring $1500.

How much would you want for the whole thing?

How much left to get it running?
[EDIT] Re-read your naotes about already having driven it.

Can you post some pics of it though. The condition will dictate a lot of the price. While it doesn't sound like much work to get it running, having to fix any major mistakes can be a nightmare.
I just re-did the body work on my last project car (and I'm still suffering through it over a year later....)
