Default Where to buy 440 cube LS7 Long Engine?

As the title suggests, I'm looking for places that build LS7 stroker long engines (outright sale for export to Australia).
I have seen them on the Texas Speed website and am very keen on one.

Are there other places over there that offer similar deals???

Are you looking for a "deal" price wise, or power? You probably can't have maximum power and minimum price. You rarely get what you don't pay for.

IOW: What is your power/torque appetite, and how deep are your pockets?

I doubt that you need a 440 for that goal.

Sorry, but I don't personally know engine builders who put budget above performance and quality. I do know some who make a lot of "bang for the buck", but they make big "bangs".

I also know some Kiwi engine builders who could help you out. Of course, they aren't inexpensive either.

I like your screen name. What is the "71"? Size in mm?


Good luck!

Their 12.1 cr 454ci only puts down 560 RWHP

Pretty low power.

We've built tons of 440+cube LS7 engines making up to 750fwhp! With the PRC Ported LS7 cylinder heads we offer probably the most potent street LS7's available! Give one of my sales guys a call & they can tell you a little bit about our short-blocks & what goes into them. I bet we even have several 440s at the machine shop getting built!

dca1042, I have looked into COME Racing for this particular engine, but for the specs I want, it turned out about $10k more expensive! The shipping and GST comes to around $2500 - $3000 for the US engine (we don't pay duty on this either because of the Free Trade Agreement with the US, for items manufactured there). With our dollar being so strong at the moment, you really can't beat a direct import.

Thanks Jason, I'll give the guys a call...
