Rebuild or not?

It will be left standard to begin with, but will gain some power by not using the cats. Should be quick/scary enough in a Minor.

I've finalised the order - I'm getting an LS1 cut out of a Camaro (was informed that Corvette fly by wire throttle may have been difficult to wire) complete with radiator, prop, ECU and wiring, all linkages etc etc.
Should be here in 3 to 4 weeks.

Hi
At the risk of being rude do you mind if I ask what you are paying for shipping and how it will be traveling.

I think when I got mine, I paid US$900 via BAX Global airmail.

Took about 7 days. Engine, box, shaft, etc just tied to a pallet

The guy I'm buying it though deals in Corvettes, and it is coming in a container along with a car and other bits and pieces. He did say however I could get it airmail and it would cost £500. I took the cheap option, as i'm not really in a great hurry - price not known yet, but was told not to worry (split several ways).
