FS: 408 Solid Roller motor
Guys I am throwing a feeler out their on my Solid Roller motor. This motor was built for big spray and now I have decided to race a NA series so those extra oz spinning around are hurting my ultimate goals.
The motor has 10 dyno passes on it and just had the bearings replaced to make sure they were 100%. Motor has never seen nitrous.
Motor was built by TSP.
Here is the breakdown of the motor:
Iron Block was brand new from GM at the start
Race Demon 950 Carb
Victor Jr Port matched intake
valve cover spacers
Lunati 4" Crank
Aluminum Rods
Diamond Domed pistons (right at 13.5:1)
Diamond Racing Pro-Select Rings (Low tension)
Clevite H Rod Beaings
Clevite H Main Bearings
Rollmaster Double Roller heat treated timing set
COMP solid lifters
260/270 SR LS1 Cam (+.700 lift)
TEA CNC/Hand blended DART PRO1 Heads (Flow 337 intake and 285 exhaust @ .600 lift)
COMP 943 Pacaloy Springs (Brand New)
Cometic Head gaskets
All ARP fasteners and studs
COMP Adjustable Rockers
7.2 pushrods
I paid over $15k for the combo. I will NOT part it out unless someone wants the long block but not the intake/carb setup.
This is a great race motor or a great motor that is a piston swap away from being a MONSTER street motor (Get the compression to a little lower #).
Looking to get 11.5k OBO for the motor SHIPPED anywhere in the continential US!!!

Through a powerglide and an IRS rear it made a hair over 535rwhp with a very loose, high stall converter BUT that was at 5800rpm. The springs originally in the motor sat compressed for a while (Lost over 50lbs of seat pressure) and caused bad valve float. The new springs should let the motor spin to 7500-7800ish (Oil pump restricted at that point based on recommendations from Mikey at Rapid).
I can get the motor dyno'd with the new springs but the estimates by TSP and Mikey were somewhere in the 580-600rwhp.
