Default Engine built for BOOST >>>>



  • 5.3L Iron Block -- 352cid (bore 3.910 / stroke 3.662 / net CR 9:1)
  • Ross Forged Pistons (15cc dishes)
  • Full Floating Wrist Pins
  • Lunati Pro Mod Rods with ARP Bolts (zero deck height)
  • Total Seal Rings
  • Clevite 77 Main and Rod Bearings
  • New Cam Bearings
  • Stage 1 heads (professionally ported and polished for boost application)
  • Manley Stainless Valves (stock size) with valve job
  • Comp Chrome Moly Pushrods
  • Stock Crank (rotating assembly balanced)
  • ARE Hardened Head Bolts
  • ARE Modified LS6 Oil Pump
  • Comp Cam (221/227 114LSA .561/.569)
  • Comp 918 Springs (good to .600 lift)
  • 1998 Valve Covers

The engine runs great. Dyno shows NA pull, 100-shot, and 150-shot.

Dyno pulls made through TH350, non-lockup converter, and Strange 12-bolt.

NA pull was 356rwhp and 386rwtq



This is a great engine for someone wanting to run high boost. It can handle 15psi when tuned correctly. I want to build a high-compression NA motor to run N2O.

$5500 for LONG BLOCK shipped with current cam and valve springs
$5000 for LONG BLOCK shipped with stock cam and valve springs

or

$4000 for SHORT BLOCK shipped with current cam and springs
$3500 for SHORT BLOCK shipped with stock cam and springs

NO CORE REQUIRED


What is not included:

Intake, fuel rails, throttle body, injectors, rocker arms, timing chain, front cover, rear cover, oil pan, motor mounts, and sensors I need to keep for new engine (cam sensor, oil pressure sensor, crank sensor, etc).

Engine is already broken in, so no waiting for the fun to begin <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

I will accept up to $1000 credit for block, crank, and head cores.

Hey if you haven't got it sold in a couple of months, I'll definatly buy it, but I got to put some money in my suspension first. Of course now that I've posted my interest some one will probably ****** it up by the end of the week! <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Hey Steve! One guy is trying to get the money together, but nothing for sure. I am leaving Hawaii in a few months, so if I don;t sell soon, it'll have to wait. Don't even know where I'm going yet and I leave in May or June. I may be staying overseas though, which won't make my hobby any easier <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">
