It's just cramped, I have a hard time doing any basic maintenance on it compared to my L36

Thats true, this is literally the easiest engine I have ever worked on. If my engine ever blows up ill be getting an l67 put in. Or ill swap one in at 200k. Either way I love this engine.

Parting it out you can probably get a good amount. Especially for the front body pieces if the are in good shape. Its all about how long you want to invest into selling off the parts. But you could probably get over $850 for it. Speaking of which what's the condition of the drivers sude tail light?

Bet youll have better luck selling the whole car. Itll take a while to part it out and make decent money.
