I'm looking at one for 3k, don't know what kind of condition it's in, and it's in Australia! (Usually 3 times the price of everything!)

3k sounds more like the core charge.

I think Keith should consider this:

This is not a SLS Black Series motor. It is just a run of mill M159 motor.

Really it wouldnt be hard to get a SLS BS engine.. Just upgrade your valve train on a normal M159 and find someone to tune it to perfection.

Only difference is the valve train to hit the 8000rpm redline.
