    $50
  • Location Ambler, PA, 19002, USA
  • Condition Used
Description:

Description:
I've upgraded my engine with new heads, cam and pistons so my unused parts are for sale. These are all in good condition with some caveats so please read for details. All parts are from my LS-swapped Miata with a stock 1998 LS1. I bought the engine used with ~30k and have added about 5k miles of street driving and two road track days in the last two years. I never had an engine issue, overheating, bounce off the rev limiter, etc. so my belief is these are still valuable and could be reused with no issues.

LS1 "806" heads. I've looked them over after pulling and see no obvious damage, cracks, etc. Be aware these have the early style valve covers, which make them incompatible with later valve covers. No broken studs, stripped or heli coiled spark plug holes. No rockers as I reused them on my new heads.

$50

Cam, Pistons and valve covers sold

Please think it through before asking me to ship.

Thanks

$250

Cam appears to be not from a 1998, but rather a 99-2000 car based on the part number.
PN#12560965-198/209, .500/.500, 119.5 LSA
$100

Stock 3.898" LS1 cast pistons. At some point the piston tops were fly cut prior to me owning. When my engine builder removed them from my stock rods, it looks like he may have clamped them and left some marks near the ring lands. Not sure if these would affect performance, etc. but that is up to you.
0.9449" wrist pin. The original pins are included if you want them.
$50

7702 Comp Cams pushrod length checker
Used once - $10 firm (these are $20 new)

Willing to ship, just send your zip code for an estimate. Buyer pays shipping.

My previous FS post expired, and took my pics with it. I can take new ones for anything you are interested in.

Thanks
Hello,

Are the pistons still available? Thanks
