Head Flow:
Lift Intake Exhaust
.100 70.5 52.1
.200 135.8 103.9
.300 196.2 149.4
.400 242.5 181.5
.500 280.0 202.8
.600 296.7 216.4
.700 315.2 224.8
.800 316.7 225.2
Engine Accessories:
--Taylor custom length plug wires (black, not yet cut) ~$50
--Made For You Loom (black/aluminum) ~$75
--SJM Low mount Alternator bracket/system (brand new, mounted to engine) $200 retail
--42# Lucas injectors (10,000 miles) $375
--AS&M Monoblade TB with “custom” black plastic top plate (for stealth…) $550
--Aeromotive Adjustable fuel pressure regulator $165
Initial build the engine produced 470 rwhp on 91 octane pump gas with zero knock on a conservative tune. 487 rwhp on a “race” tune, still on pump gas. With the nitrous system (dual 50hp shot, 100hp total) it made 634 rwhp at 5,250 rpm (going lean, so we let out) and 750 ft lbs at 3,600 rpm. I ended up burning a piston and thus the rebuild. The prior motor was 11.9:1 comp ratio with a solid roller cam of 248/250 (@ .050”) and .662”/.665” lift, 112ls, 108 cam timing. I got a solid 10,000 miles out of the motor, racing and driving many freeway miles. I would drive 105 miles to the track, swap tires, run some 10’s and drive 105 miles home. Best the car went NA was 11.22 @ 122mph and best N2O was 10.78 @ 129mph with a NOS 5176 kit. 1.51 60 ft was the best with the 6-spd and a near full weight car. Full interior (dynomat), CD player/stereo, AC, CC, power everything, etc.
The engine builder figured this new motor (fresh rebuild) would be good for 75-90 hp more than the first engine. His claims have always been conservative. I was hoping for 515-550 rwhp out of this engine with the T-56.
Asking $6,250 for the complete long block with tins (valve covers, oil pan, intake, fluidamper, vented Opti, etc)
Asking $900 for the other parts.
Together, total package price: $7,100
Basically all you need to run 9's in a lightened F-body (possibly full weight) with a properly setup suspension.
Will deliver within 200 miles. Have a hard grey plastic shipping crate to transport or ship the engine in. Such as:

yeah theres alot of crazy deals like this on motors that the owner isnt even getting like a 3rd of what theyve put into it. once i have suspension and rearend taken care of i think i may just find a deal like this on here and drop it in. goodluck with the sale bro.

But the quote above is fairly accurate. I am not parting out the motor. If two people wanted to, I would sell the shortblock seperate from the heads/cam/valvetrain/intake IF I had buyers for both.
This is not a motor that just had parts slapped on it. It is a combination put together by a well known and respected engine builder/shop that creates race motors.
I need to move this motor and associated parts so, give me an offer... Don't be disrespectful, but lets see what we can work out.

Updated price...
$6,500 for the long block
$7,250 for the package deal with injectors, TB, etc.
I can't believe I'm offering it for this little. Would take an honest $15,000+ to replicate this build. This is $400 LESS then what it cost to "refresh" the motor...
NEVER FIRED, FRESH ENGINE.

Brian Cruice, there's a name I ain't heard in a very long while. 
Bad *** motor man.
Good luck with the sale. Helluva price. That's painful, I understand. 
Cheers,
Andrew (the LT1Edit cable guy )

What is more painfull is realizing I need to sell my '02 Z06 as well... I'm going to miss that car so much. I was getting really good at Auto-X in it (ESP class usually) and was winning my class or second place and got top time of the day at two different events.
I still can't believe nobody has bought this motor. One guy called me and said he would have money in a few weeks and never called back.
Is this motor "too much" for the average Joe or what???
