W2W March special Going through our parts crib we noticed 4 sets of flat top pistons that were intended for World Challenge engines and a few aluminum blocks then a little idea took form. Lets do a few fully forged 347 shortblocks and sell them dirt cheap!
LS6 aluminum block 347 forged short block 1 left, truck freight applies $2995.00 !!!!!!!!!!
Callies 4340 forged 3.622" stroke crank shaft
Compstar 6.125" forged connecting rods
Mahle 2618 material flat top piston will clear just about any camshaft
Plasma moly piston rings
Clevite main bearings
Federal Mogul race series rod bearings
402" LS2 forged short block $4799.00 with FREE SHIPPING and 1 set of MLS head gaskets. 3 available
Our LS2 402 uses premium quality parts throught and is reflected in the price.
LS2 aluminum block
Callies 4" stroke 4340 forged crank shaft
Compstar 3.125" connecting rod
Mahle forged flat top piston
Plasma moly rings
Clevite main bearings
Federal Mogul race series rod bearings
All short blocks are assembled and machined with our painstaking attention detail, in stock and ready to ship.
Please call me directly to order at 248-589-1190
We are closed during the weekend and I expect the 347 to go so fast so if you want it give us a call and make a short block from the first company to break the six second barrier with a Gen 3 power your hot rod today!
Thanks guys.

i want in line on one of the 347s, but i have a question or two also. with a 66cc chamber what CR would those pistons yield? looking for around 11.5:1, running solid roller in the ~0.750" lift ~260 duration and running a single plane with a plate. thanks guys that's a helluva deal for a fully forged 346.

WOW! Anyone even thinking about getting a new SB should jump on this! I'm thinking about it and my SB only has 500 miles on it. LOL... guess my timing wan't there this time. Someone is gonna get a hell of an engine at a hell of a price.

Skipper, got your PM, and replied.
Bill, these are already built, so no options on the crank.
Locals guys get the same great deal! Not sure if we can discount the "free shipping" for local guys though. You'd have to check with Kevin since he set up the special.

Skipper, using the info you gave me, and the following parameters, you are a long way from 12:1
- Stroke 3.622
- Bore 3.9
- Chamber 66cc
- Gasket .055
- Valve reliefs 4cc
Nets a CR of about 9.8:1
I used this calculator: http://www.race-cars.net/calculators...alculator.html
You would need a 50cc chamber to get to about 11.9:1 without changing any of theother parameters. You could go to a thinner head gasket, but then you sacrifice piston to valve clearance.

Mark...the 347 engines all have flat top pistons and would not really be "boost friendly" over about 6-7psi. For us to build a boost friendly engine would require special pistons. These engines were built with extra parts we had in the shop already hence the good pricing.

Sent you a PM Kevin...
Do the 347's have -4cc valve reliefs too ?
Just wanted to ask you about throwing in a cam/cam bearings/oil pump/pan for me as well.
Maybe something around a 218/224 on a 116 LSA (blower cam) ? Needs to be be streetable and pass emissions out here in Cali. What would you recommend, and can you hook me up ?
