Default V8 Conversion on 1978 911 Sc - Value/advice

Hey guys,

Came across this 1978 with a V8 conversion. does this conversion hurt the value of the car? how much a car like this is worth considering the fact everything else inside and out is original and in great shape.

what should be my concerns when buying something like this?

thank you

Run away quickly. It is no longer a 911.

You seem to keep looking at horrible cars. To me, those type of cars are Frankenstein cars. Yes, doing this devalues the car. You should be really concerned. Don't do it but I'm not the first to tell you this.

For the dollar amount you have been talking about spending, a booster may be a much better choice than a 911 that would be in that price range.
