LS2 Block, Forged Rods, Stock Rods, Crank Aluminum LS2 Block w/ new cam bearings (not installed) $600
This one was bored .010 (incorrectly) and ran for 1500 miles before the skirts of the pistons where ate up. It had bad piston slap in the morning and would warm up and go unnoticeable. Turns out the machine shop Keith Roberts Racing engines bored a wave into it when it was 4.010. It also had a mirror finish on the bores so we think it starved the skirts of oil. We had a seperate and trusted machinist check it and he bored the worse cylinder to .015 over just to check it and it cleaned up. I can give you the machinist contact info if you want to check up on it You can either run a 4.020 or a 4.030. The service limit is 4.020 by GM's standards but theres a bunch of guys on LS1tech running 4.030.
Eagle forged 6.125 rods with ARP bolts $400
Only ran for 1500 miles.. absolutely nothing wrong with them.
Stock GM LS2 rods $200
about 17k miles nothing wrong with them again.
Stock GM LS2 Crank 3.622 58x reluctor $325
Great condition.. Already polished and ready to go.
