Arrow 408 long block

*price drop below

For sale is my old set up:

408ci iron block
Eagle Crank
Eagle 6.125 rods
Diamond Pistons 11519
Diamond Plasma Rings
Comp R lifters
Absolute Speed Stage 3 6.0 liter heads
LG cam (don't have the specs)
Head studs

Bottom end was built by a forum member. Top end, cam, oil pan, etc assembly complted by MTI in Houston. I installed the long block myself in my car.
This set up literally sat in my garage for years. I never drove the car and it probably has a maximum of 1k miles on it. Never ran at the track or even tuned (not even dynoed).
The only concern I ever had was oil psi. Hot the oil psi would be at 25-30psi. No idea if it was the pump or clearances or what.

Currently located in Lewisville I would like a local sale. Please PM or email me.
$4,500 as is or best offer.

What's the compression ratio for this engine? I'm assuming it was built for N/A?

It was built for a N/A set up but it's an iron block...
Honestly, because it has kind of low oil psi, it's really a bargain for someone to buy and re-build. With less than 1k miles on everything all parts have barely been used.
Really need to sell it asap.

Never dyno'd the car. The car literally sat for years (6) without more than 750 miles total. Literally was only fired up to keep the battery good and circulate the fluids. The car only has 8600 miles on it.
Gauge was just factory on instrument cluster.
Like I said, i never had any issues and sounded fine. I broke it in like normal, felt fast, sounded normal, just had low pressure. Then it found a place in the garage to relax for some time
