I figure one of your guys is looking for a V12 for something. I happen to have bought a 750iL to do an LS swap and just to happen to have one taking up space now. Already pulled, sitting in the back of my van. Trans is still attached. I'm pretty sure the A pack is gone. Shifts into reverse and neutral, that's about it. CL link below:

Feel free to shoot me an offer. I'd really like my van back :(

Price drop to $500. I'd rather have the space back than project number 5 :(

In addition to Pinch Buggy,  Lil Stampie and I play Punch V10 and V12 with those worth a punch per cylinder. It might be worth it just to get him every morning. Bump for a cool engine.

This is cool.  Wish I had the space and time adapt a M/T to one of these.

I was looking at adapters also. Did you see the T5 adapter thread?

I've seen this one. I've also looked at Kennedy Engineering and PMC motorsports for adapters. Needless to say, there are a slew of things you can bolt it to. I just have a Z3, E30, '56 Studebaker, 750iL, and a NB miata to finish first. But if I still have this motor at that point, I'm sure I can make something cool :) So please, someone save me from myself and buy this from me!

Dumb offer, but if you have this in 9 months (when I have a house/garage again) I will take this off your hands :)

Well, I do believe that this motor is the only v12 to ever grace the challenge, and I also think it got me a 12th place finish....cheeky

Doesn't this need to be put in something fitting like the Answer?

I dunno but I just picked up an '04 RX-8 with a questionable motor for a whopping $1,000.  We'll see how that goes but since everything is always for sale for the right price.....wink
