I'm contemplating selling my engine. Might get rid of it for the right price, but not commited at this time. Also I am not really sure what it is worth the way it sits. Kinda just feelin it out, but here is what I have...

New GMPP LSX Short Deck Block
Callies 4 inch Crankshaft w/ 24X Reluctor
New Howards Billet 6.125 Rods
New Diamond 4.125 Flat top pistons with reliefs, .030 ring gaps
Custom Comp Cam 232/244 .648/.648 on a 110 CL by Pat G
Melling Hi Volume oil pump
Wet Sump, Truck oil pan
Coated Clevite main and rod bearings
New Morel lifters and 3/8 Comp push rods

Also all the covers and a TCI flexplate and Spec flywheel.

Compression is around 11.5 with 70cc chambers

All machine work was done locally with deck plates and assembled by me and a local racing engine builder at his shop.

Feel free to PM me for more info. Thanks

Edit: I have included a picture of the engine as a long block when it was mocked up in the truck.

Just wanted to add a couple things. After adding all the parts, I have roughly $7000-$7500 in the short block as it sits. I have listed it at $7500 and believe I would sell it at this price so any buyer would essentially be getting the machine work and assembly for free. I'm also open to reasonable offers.

The other thing I wanted to mention is that I'm not exactly sure what callies crankshaft is in the engine now that I think about it. It is either a Magnum or a Dragon Slayer, but I'm not certain which. However I can tell you it is the crankshaft that has the machined counterweight edges.

Its a 24X reluctor wheel and has a truck oil pan with a melling oil pump. I built it to be N/A but set the ring gaps to .030 in case I decided to spray later on. I will have to check my notes for sure, but pretty sure it was .030.

I believe the compression with LS7 heads and .050 head gasket was somewhere around 11.5 if I remember correctly. I will update the original post with this info.
