Default LSx Block

Whatcha got? Im looking for something to throw in a play truck- four wheel drive- and may venture to turbo it one day. I do believe I will be boring the cylinders out a little so some scuffing to begin with wont hurt my feelings. Getting ready to tour the junkyards in the coming weeks but wanted to see what you guys had seeing I got a fantastic deal last time I bought one from here. Im located in Memphis, Tn and am not opposed to travel but shipping is also an option, I have a business address they can unload at. PM me or post on here and we will see what we can do!

Thanks,
Tim

i have shortblock out of 02 TA i bought as spare,heads were off and did have light surface rust above pistons,i pb blasted most of it off,imo it would need the .005 hone for sure,it came out of car with less than 40K on it,no doubt cause ive seen the car which got a diff. powerplant,dont see any obvious damage anywhere,has ARP rod bolts and ARP bottom end stud kit for the mains!!! havent got the crank pulley off yet but i imagine it has a pretty aggresive cam in it judging by the expensive ARP setup,this came from a used car dealer on a repo,he didnt have a clue about this motor(i took the oil pan off)$650 firm for block still assembled w/ pistons,rods,crank,front & rear covers,crank pulley,not going to ship this,im in east central AL

If you decide to go 4.125 bore. I'll make you a very good deal on a set of manley premium forged pistons. I have an extra set sitting in the garage.
