As far as OP car making roughly 520whp as an SS, his car is maxed out without dropping large $ on fueling, cooling, forged internals etc. At that point just get a ZL1 is he's considering taking the next step
But your ZL1 has a cam and headers...so you already sunk money in it because stock evidently wasn't enough?

The difference in cost trying to sell his modded SS (which he is going to take a loss on the mods) and buying a clean ZL1 would easily pay for a forged bottom end, supercharger, and fuel system. If the SS was still stock, then yeah, I can see the logic behind it. But nobody wants to pay top dollar for a modded SS... especially a cam car because half the time they are not done correctly, and people are trying to unload them.
