Default WTT: Pistol for short block

Im on the market for a new engine. Looking to transform my 68 camaro into an LS powered beast. I am short on funds but i would consider trading one of the following to make up for my lack of cash. If the deal is right i may have cash+gun on my end for your block.Any blocks 5.7 or larger will be considered. I will need to look up the legal part in the event that a trade will in fact happen. So that being said here is what i have to offer:

Glock 19- this is a 9mm compact gun with 2 10 round mag and a tactical light/laser, this light/laser alone is about 150-200 brand new.

Springfield XD-40 -This is a .40 cal. subcompact gun, the difference is that not only the grip is shorter but the barrel is as well. it will come with 2 10 round mag and one 12 round mag. The 12 round mag comes with the grip extension which makes for a very comfortable grip. It also has the plastice holdster, quick loader, and a mag holder(holds 2 mags.)

Both guns were bought used and i have put maybe 700rnds thru the glock and about 500 rnds thru the springfield, the springfield however has seen more use than the glock. Both guns have cases, they will hold about the same monetary value, my personal fav is the springfield but my girl prefers the 9mm, for obvious reasons. So let me know what you got. I will not sell the guns, only trades for engine blocks ,short/long, will be considered.

Robert 214-213-3649 or email me beforeal14@sbcglobal.net or of course PM on here.

Welcome to the club. I solved that issue with a P22, too small to kill anything and easy enough to shoot that chicks love 'em. People borrow it from me all the time haha

Thanks for clearing that up Tana, I will only be trading one of the two. thats why i mention the money part on my end, sorry for any confusion. I will try and post some pics here in a little bit all i have is my phone but you will get the idea of the size at least. As for the LQ4 block, im not sure if you understood it as me trading both pistols for your long block, if youre still interested in one gun for your long block i may consider but im still holding out for an LS short block, or the LQ9. But can you PM me some pics?

Something like a sig p238 or a kel tek pf9 for concealment and thickness (wideness) matters a lot. Makes it look like a wallet and anything can kill. im not looking for sub-compact more for something that is compact. Still doing research though.

I already have a xd40 and I want something smaller.
