Default Score !

have just decided to install an LS into my '65 chevelle in the past 2 weeks.am a new member here.
so i started advertising most of my BBC stuff,trying to just trade money to get into an LS.sell big block stuff,buy LS stuff.well,then i found this,

http://lexington.craigslist.org/cto/3451326324.html

today i bought it,

stock LQ4 short block(suppose to be 19k miles)

stock LS 3 intake with rails and injectors

NIB-balanced 4.100 stroke kit(scat crank and rods,with manley pistons +.005)

NIB-scoggin dickey cnc'd LS3 heads with manley valves

NIB-comp 238/251 .615/.632 115 sep with comp dual springs,retainers,and pushrods

NIB-LS 3 rockers with comp trunion upgrade

NIB-mahle rings,clevite bearings,and MLS head gaskets

NIB-ARP head bolts

used F-body oil pan

my Christmas is taken care of !

some stuff may/will not be used ,as i am carburating. not sure about the cam.don't know how pushrods were determined prior to the build,probably wasted money there,maybe not.they are 7.425".will have the balance checked,same money as balancing.of course have to have the block machined.

got the receipt for the cam and valve train parts,$1040 from Thunder Racing.

heads are $775 ea scoggin dickey

stroke kit right at $2000 scoggin dickey

wasn't really ready to jump this deep in yet,but felt like i couldn't pass it up.

Watch that long of a stroke. Piston rock, windage tray clearance, and oil consumption you should look into.

Also be warned on those ls3 heads they arent meant for small bore motors. 4.060+
