needs to run well, do not need intake ecm wiring harness etc, just the long block with all the front accessories and exhaust manifolds preferably

are you in a hurry?im in the process of have a 383 forged motor built and will be selling my longblock with LPE GT2-3 cam and all in August.i live about an hour from Orlando,any chance you'd want to wait?

bender

i`m in no hurry, what would you be looking to get out of it?

ddnspider

iTrader: (26)

well it makes 370 to the wheels,had the cam double roller timing chain and oil pump all put in about 7500 miles ago which all come with it,so im thinking 1800 is fair for what it includes,btw its in perfect working order,runs like a beast

bender

I was kinda hoping for something stock and cheaper, i`m already into the car for alot and its just gonna be a gift anyway, I might be willing to lay down 1800 in a month or so though.

this longblock will be mot just have the cam but also double valve springs,titanium retainers and hardened pushrods as well.Im building a new motor all of this is staying in the motor now.Also it has a double roller timing set,new oil pump also.So this is a nice little upgrade thats very reliable,and since it was in a 6speed you always want to do pushrods at the very least.I think $2k is fair for this,i can give you any other info needed as its worth the exta $200 since it comes with all the other parts already in the longblock.

but the timeframe is perfect for me as well.

bender

you dont need any parts do ya? or perhaps something made?

ddnspider

iTrader: (26)

Now thats an interesting thought ,what do you mean my "made" there are a few things so tell me what you can do or have done?

bender

control arms, torque arm, a arms, frame connectors, subframes, backhalf, roll bar, roll cage, you name it I can do it.

headers?

ddnspider

iTrader: (26)

and ill be needing 3" piping from my turbo to the FMIC and them exhaust piping made too

bender

so headers, intercooler and turbo piping and an exhaust system, where do you live?

i`m assuming you want it all to be stainless?

bender

well except for the exhaust system duh

ddnspider

see heres my predicament,the headers need to connect to the Crossover pipe in the same location as the stock headers connected to the Y pipe.Then i need a pipe to run from my Turbo to my FMIC,and finally i have a downpipe but i need the rest of the piping to connect to where a stock muffler is.And 14 gauge is fine if its cheaper like that.Ill be running aluminum from the FMIC to the TB.

bender

14 gauge is defnetely cheaper, basically you want a pipe running from one header (assuming you want shortie headers?) over to the other side as tight as can be to be feed into the turbo, everything else will be easy. you do live in florida right? because I can`t make this stuff without a car to work off of, to be honest I could probably get it close to where everything would work if I couldnt build off your combo but I still wouldnt do it, i`m a perfectionist.

no i have the crossover pipe,i was wondering if you MADE headers....the other stuff should be easy like you said.if you dont make headers thats cool.but ill still need the pipe from the turbo to the FMIC and the exhaust.ive been quoted $400 for those 2 things from a very good guy in town so ill be more than happy to knock that off the price of the motor...is being able to barter great!

bender

i`ve made headers before, but if this crossover pipe you have is designed to work with off the shelf headers it`d probably be cheaper for you to pick a set up, can still make a set if you want.
