Default how much for a slightly used GT500 supercharger?

What is a reasonable asking price for a GT500 supercharger. The car has around 9000 miles, hasn't been ragged on, and has never been to the track.

I want to get a whipple 2.9L, and could use the money from selling this to help pay the whipple off....so if anyone's intersted feel free to PM me an offer!

Unfortunately there is little value in the old supercharger. Anyone with a 5.4 4v already has one, so there is no advantage to buying it, and if they have a 4.6 3v, it would cost more to have a manifold and all the accessories made to make the supercharger work than it would cost for a new kit that has everything, and you still end up with an eaton based supercharger that is inefficient and limited in output (ie the very reason you are replacing it).

Sorry, but you would be lucky to get $500-600 for it.

Some gt500 owners are buying extra ones to send out to be snakebyte rebuild / port job... Port only jobs will run under $900 whereas the snakebyte rebuild is $1500.. So basically no more than $600

How much extra power does that Snakebyte Rebuild / Port Job net you?
