Default Forged 347 shortblock

Throwing this out there..... this is what I know so far about it.

-Aluminum LS1 block - SHORTBLOCK ONLY
-Forged flat tops (still checking to verify brand) 3.905 bore... will check that as well.
-Scat 6.125 Rods
-Stock crank
-MS4 cam (needs to come out, has some kind of defect)
-Lifters still in motor
-ARP head studs
-Valley tray
-Pushrods for said cam for Dart heads... don't know if they'll work with others??
-motor is still all together.

I don't have a mileage calc for this motor, nor do I know much else about it. Does not come with oil pan, pickup, windage tray, balancer, or rear cover.

I pulled the motor to have the heads done and change out the cam for a new one and decided to build something bigger, but keep my heads. THIS IS A SHORTBLOCK ONLY. ADD YOUR HEADS, CAM, PAN, AND REAR COVER.

I'd like to see 1k, but am open to offers. The motor ran good and had nice oil pressure when taken down. I was simply going to change cam and 1 lifter and go back together. I took some pics with my camera phone, but they are kinda sh***y. I will take some more with my good camera this weekend. Email me if your interested.... niceguyyy01@aol.com

I do have some pics, shoot me an email and I'll send them over. They are from my camera phone, so they aren't the greatest, but do show the important stuff.

I do not have another cam to install.

I'm looking for offers.

I only drove it about 40 miles since owning it. A peice of the cam sensor came off, and looks like one lobe has some kind of scrape on it. I was told I could replace the cam and one lifter and rock on... but decided to build a big motor instead. I assume the lifters are stock type? The guy I got the car from couldn't tell me anything about it, as he didn't know either. The pushrods are Crane 7.250 and in good shape. The motor doesn't seem to have that many miles on it, as the crosshatch on the bores is still visible. I'll send over the pics I have and will take more this weekend and get more info on the pistons. I can tell you they are forged flat tops with two valve reliefs.

Ok all those wanting more pics, send me an email address. Also, there are no other numbers on the pistons, so I have not confirmed the brand yet. I have contacted Wiseco to confirm, but have not heard back. The number on them is 6398A07.
