I need opinions

I can get a wrecked 95 z for 1300.
my engine is basically stock other than KAI and catback.
the wrecked z has a built engine with brodix heads?? and dynoed around 400 rwhp. the t-56 is beefed up for the extra HP and is under waranty up to 600hp. im not sure of any of the other specifics on the engine
the car has front end damage but is reparable.
I was just going to switch that engine/trans with the one in my car along with the leather interior.

what are your opinions on brodix heads?
is this worth the money?

Brodix is supposed to be having some LT1 heads come out soon, but I haven't seen anyone actually running them. Check to see if they say Brodix on them first.

Receipts are what make any built car valuable. Without them, there's no way to tell what is actually done to the car. If he has them, then it seems like a good deal. You can also sell a lot of the leftover parts as well.

Don't forget, you'll need a tune.

If the car is putting down 400rwhp like it says it does, it has alot more then 1300 dollars into it. Even if you didn't swap the setup, the value of being a parts car alone would justify the cost.
