Just Floor It

OK, Say I got a longblock, what would I need to complete it??

I know:

Computer
Sensors
MAF
Intake

The reason I am asking is because I may want to start off with an LS1 block and build up, beings I dont have the money to but one off the bat...

Thanks

JustFloorIt, I'm doing the same thing. Its taken me about 6 months to get (almost) everything off of ebay. Here is what I have purchased so far (You wont need the heads as I did, since you have the long block):

• LS1 Shortblock $326.01
• LS1 Intake manifold $41.01
• LS1 Allen bolt kit $51.00
• LS1 Head Bolt Kit $59.00
• Chevy LS1 High performance Book $15.95
• OEM Air lid $10.50
• Crank Pulley & Belt $13.01
• LS1 Waterpump $40.00
• Center-bolt valve covers and coils $50.00
• LS1 Cam & Pushrods $20.00
• LS1 PCM & Harness $175.00
• LS1 Heads
• LS1 lifter & Rocker arm Assy $71.00
• LS1 Oil Pump $36.00
• LS1 Timing Cover $31.00
• LS1 Air Pump $27.89
• LS1 Catalytic Converters & Rear O2 sensors $30.00
• LS1 Fuel Pump & Sender $45.00
• Dura Bond Cam Bearings $16.49
• LS1 Cruise Control $1.00
• LS1 Air lid $1.00
• LS1 O2 Sensors (Pre Cat) $20.00
• LS1 MAF sensor $5.00
• K&N Filter $22.02
• LS1 Cam Gear $5.00
• LS1 powesteering cooler $12.59
• LS1 Valve Springs $20.00
• Engine Brackets (Alt/AC/pulleys) $50.00
• Oil Pan $52.01

For a total of $1397.48 not including $302.35 shipping all of those parts.

I'm still looking at spending another grand or more for the following:

• Radiator
• Air Lid Base
• Filter housing
• T-56
• Slave Cyl
• Cooling Fans
• Fuel Rail
• Fuel Injectors
• Retainers
• keepers
• Driveshaft
• Alternator
• Starter
• A/C Compressor
• throttle body

Its taken me so long, because I've been looking for low prices. I recently got a bit anxious an started paying a bit more, not too mention going back to my original idea of building a stroker, which means I will have to replace a lot of these parts with heavy duty/new parts.

Long story short, it may not be any cheaper, but if you can only spend bits at a time and arent in too much of a hurry, you can do it.

Hope this helps,

best bet is just picking up a pull out crate engine complete with either the t56 or 4l60e
