LS2 block re-sleeved by Rapid Motorsports, Diamond Pistons, Calies Compstar rods and Dragonslayer short snout crank, Target compression was 12:1 with 72cc heads

Bore:4.16
Stroke:4.125

Pistons:-2cc, 11 degree cut pistons .004 in the hole

Cam: 254/256 duration @.050, 678/680 lift 114LSA

Engine was run by Jordan @ RPM motorsports in his ZO6, churned out 611 RWHP with ESP LS7 heads and the cam that is in the block now. Looking for $5000 which is what I paid when I picked it up in Delaware in 2007. Would rather not ship but if I do it would be at buyers expense. Can deliver for $.53 per mile one way, do not mind delivering especially at a price that covers gas.

Thanks, Keith

Default short block

I agree I have been looking for one with similar cubic inch and I found a 427 short (new) for under $4k.

To flewbyyou04r1: The short block was re-gone over after being taken out of the car, what do you think needs to be re-freshened or gone over again because I was not aware of anything.

To 2000Phoenix: I bought this short block from a guy named Jordan who at the time worked at RPM Motorsports in Deleware (may still). This short block was run in it's current configuration with ported LS7 heads and laid down 611RWHP. He then wanted more power, broke the engine down, took it to Rapid who built it to have it gone over and sold it to me here in the classified section. It is still in the same plastic wrap as when it left Rapid.

To 38310ss:Then buy an iron block 427 for $3900, wait for it to be built with more than likely a lesser quality crank and rods and **** off. And have a nice day!

I have seen this happen before as well however this engine does not have any moisture issues and I would have no problem cutting off the plastic to take pictures of the cylinders and popping the main caps off for a serious buyer. I was only challenging your statement "motor WILL need to be freshened...". That's not true and I do not want someone that is less knowledgable about the internal components of an engine to be scared away from my engine by this statement. I know you meant no harm but a statement like that will cause harm indeed. Thank you for the reply.
