how much is a shaved p90 worth?

i tried searching to find the going price for a shaved p90 but had no luck.

 

its a p90 shaved .080 with the cam towers shimmed, with what i think is a e88 cam... not totally sure about the cam.

its got a fresh 3 angle valve job and my machinist said the rest of the head was in great shape.

 

i'm sorry if this is an inappropriate place for it... mods can delete it if they fell it necessary. I'm not sure if I'm gonna sell it or not yet. just trying to get a ballpark figure of what its worth.

"i think is a e88 cam... not totally sure about the cam."

 

I could be wrong, but because I have seen people mix and match many random parts on Z's it would not surprise me if it was an e88 cam. The e88 cams that I had in both my 240 and 260 had oil spray bars as the e88 was not an internally lubricating cam like the later 280 cams. I have seen a lot of franken z's in my 10+ years of Z ownership at this point, many of them were sitting in salvage yards. You might wanna do a search and confirm your cam as it will affect your asking price. Good luck on your sale!

i did forget to mention this is a mechanical lifter p90a head not that I think it would have much bearing on this issue. its just easier saying its a p90.

 

it has "E30" cast on the cam between the lobes for cylinders 4 and 5 and a "F" on the back end of the cam. it also has a D in between the intake and exhaust for cylinder 5.

also what are the little dots i circled in yellow for... just noticed them on a couple cam towers.... there are nine little indents.

 

According to http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/cam/index.htm ....that means its from a p79... but i have a p79 head here too and it has a "k" stamped on its end. which isn't even listed on that site.

sorry about the bad pics...

 

I also read that the stampings mean nothing.... so i don't know

 

i guess this post has gone technical so if the mods could move it to the l6 forum it would probably be best.... thanks.
