What is the sense with retiring the die's anyways after you make them???

That's pretty much exactly what I was thinking.. Thought I'd better check though. You never know what people will spend on "collecter" chit these days.. One of my customers has a mint Fiero in his garage that he bought new, he's convinced it will be bigger then the '69 camaro one day....

I remember GM Perf parts releasing an limited run aluminum 454 a few years back that was expected to sell out fast. I don't think the interest was there as expected.

I have a 1995 ZR1 corvette Torch red with black interior with 6000 miles that is for sale at 45!!! (production number 101 or 448). It has an all aluminum motor that was built by mercury that is 405 horse. The story was that GM didnt have the experience with aluminum motors like Mercury so they had Mercury do the motors. Sorry for the shameless plug.
