***SOLD***SBC 406 (short or long block), th400 trans, misc SBC Category: Engine - Complete Motors
Price: $3700
Location (State): KY
Item Condition: Used
Engine: Small Block
LS Engine?: Non-LS Part
Transmission is a th400 with a new converter and an SFI certified lightweight flexplate. According to the previous owner, this transmission is also recently rebuilt. I am unsure of the brand of the converter, but I was told that its stall speed is advertised at between 2800 and 3200rpms. This transmission performed flawlessly and shifts very firm. I was quite impressed with it while it was still in my Corvette.
In addition to the engine and trans, I also have a starter, power steering pump and bracket, alternator and brackets, and water pump that came off the engine when it was pulled.
This engine and transmission were in a 1975 Corvette I recently purchased from a gentleman in Illinois. I have always wanted to put an LS engine and T56 trans into a C3 Corvette, so that is the reason (and the ONLY reason) for sale. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this engine/trans combo. Engine fires right up every time, with good oil pressure. I took two videos of the engine running (one on cold start, and one on hot star) so that you could see the oil pressure both hot and cold and also hear the engine idle. I can email those to you on request. Engine pulls strong and runs great at all rpms, and the transmission shifts perfectly and would chirp the tires going into all gears.
Total price for everything listed is $3700. I have receipts for the engine parts and rebuild alone totaling over $5800, so I feel like this is a fair price for the engine, trans, ignition, and all accessories. If you want just the long block or even just the short block, we can probably work something out. Would be interested in a trade for a LS-series engine/trans.
Can also split this stuff up. If separated...
Price for engine with accessories and ignition is $3200obo.
Price for the trans with converter and flexplate is $550obo.
Price for the longblock (no intake, carb, accessories, or ignition) is $2700obo
Price for the shortblock is $1700obo.
