Does anyone have an idea what a complete, running GMC V-12 engine with 32,00 miles on it is worth?

A week or two may change that  I have checked out Jollys web-site and he has done a great job, with a lot of time and effort in its` making. My other option is to take the V-12 , mount it into the frame of a 1/2-ton , make the body fit(lengthen the hood & fenders ) and make an unusual cruiser out of it

Homeade manifolds with fuel injection or 6 webers and stainless zoomie headers would be pretty sweet.

Putting it on eBay is one way to see what the market will bring, and if you have a price in mind you can put a reseve on it, and then sell to the high bidder if you want when it's over.
I don't need another one just yet, but I get folks all the time asking for them. Also I just sold my 478 V6 to a guy out east of here, contcat me off list, he is a buyer for a truck supply outfit. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 45 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 45 | Anyone want another 702?We pulled one out of a Walter Snow Fighter last year and repowered it with an 855 Cummins.It runs well,but isn't worth a plug nickel | | | | | Joined: Jun 2000 Posts: 2,773 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2000 Posts: 2,773 | 2407362430 is the number.

It would sure make a great conversation piece if you could figure out how to wedge the thing in there. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 1,571 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 1,571 | One would look cool in my mom's 1939 American LaFrance fire truck. It originally had a 600+ cubic inch V12, but has been repowered with a Chevy 350 and a TH350 automatic. All the fire equipment is gone. I wonder how long that tranny would last behind the GMC torque-monster?  | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 268 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 268 | Hey Mechainiac, I see you got two nids on that Twin-Six, so looks like you will have it sold.
