Default Who has the best price on forged short blocks right now?

Please post a price here or PM me.

This is for a friend of mine that just blew his motor and kinda low on funds. So the most inexpensive forged 346-347ci shortblock is what hes looking for. Also let me know whats the most rwhp these motor can handle with the parts you use? Would like a cam also for daily driving, 114lsa and that will make the most power for a automatic. Let me know pricing with and without core (block and crank)

If APE decides to put on another GP, your friend will be in luck. They build some great motors at a very good price.

Lingenfelter was selling shortblocks with forged pistons & stock rods for 2085 a while back, they might still have that deal.

Our 402 LS2 short block goes for $3,995.00 less cam shaft!

*Eagle crank 4.000 stroke 4340 steel
*Crower I beam 6.125 rods
*Diamond -14cc dish pistons
*Diamond file fit rings
*Clevitte 77 bearings
*Fully balanced & assembled

This will also include the LS2 front cover, timming set, and valley cover. All oil galley plugs and dowel pins are installed. This set up is recomended for street strip aplications, and has proven to make great power. This will not include oil pump, or the rear cover. Everything that it does not come with you can use off of your LS1/LS6. Only other mods that will need to be made is extend your knock sensor harness to install the knock sensors on the side of the block, and extend the cam sensor harness to the front of the motor.

As for camshafts I would recomend a new Crane cam that we have on the shelf. 228/236 @ .050 .551/.600 lift on a 114 lobe sep. $354.25

Let me know if I can help!!

What kind of HP/TQ would your 402 put down using a 224/224 Cam on 114 LSA? I'm looking for something that will do well NA, but would also work with a blower or turbo later down the line.
