Default cheap race-prepped RHS block (needs repair)

Category: Engine - Complete Motors
Price: $1
Location (State): VA
Item Condition: Used
Shipping Information: Item Can be Shipped
LS Engine?: Fits LS Engine

Block is mostly filled (hardblok) - Intended for race application!

Deck is o-ringed and block is clearanced for a 4" center counterweight bryant crankshaft.
Price lowered to $750 + ship ...

specifically, the problem is the base of the bores got beat up when the piston #2 disintegrated. Needs #1 and #2 sleeves removed, base of the bores need to be welded up(where they got beat up), re machine the bores and install new liners.


estimate was about 2K to fix:
cut out liners 1 & 2
weld up cylinder base damage
machine for new liners
install liners 1 & 2
line bore mains (if required)
line bore cam (if required)
roller cam bearings (if cam line boring required)

could have a top notch block for under a 3K investment

to answer a few questions I received

this is a std deck RHS block
bores are 4.125"
damage is isolated to the cylinder 1 and 2 area.

only some nicking at the base of the cam bores as seen in the pictures

How about $750 + ship

For the right welder, can have a KILLER setup on the cheap!
