Default 408 for sale

Cartek iron block 408
Lunati crank
Eagle rods
Diamond pistons
LS1 heads
Compression 11:8:1


If you're not familiar with me or my car this is a nitrous built motor that I've run 10.25@129mph with "N/A", that was with a 1.32 60'. I drive it on the street.
I don't have any nitrous passes on it.

I'm selling the longblock for $7200.
No cash needed-credit card paid to Cartek will do.
Tell your friends.

Proven engine without a doubt. I've seen this car run countless times. It is exactly what Mark says it is. Great buy from an excellent seller.

That's a 9 second motor in some of the lighter cars that are out there...hell, a small 50 shot would work wonders as well.

Cartek is building a N/A 441 for me.
Gonna be a hydrolic roller, high compression street driven motor.
Goal is mid 9's driving to the track and back.
