I got one that needs putting together. It's alittle more than stock though. Ross forged pistons (needs minor machine work), lunati forged rods (i-beam), lunati rod blots (same as arp), stock crank, aluminum block w/ 9000 miles (bores look very good). Need new bearings, rings, assembly, and some minor machine work on the pistons.

Makes a nice little nitrous motor. I made 527 rwhp w/ 150 shot with this motor.

PM me if you are interested...

Well the block is not for me its a friend. Hes just replacing the motor on a car not looking for a block with forged internals. Thanks for the heads up anyways.

You are right. Congrats on the promotion. That usually means more money, more resposnibility, less time?? Keep me posted on your SS. You know you have the green light @ 4829 FM 1960. Hope to see you soon.

Oh, my little 89 Grey Fox Body did put down 1040 @ 18 PSI. Can't get it all to the ground but I am learning. Best, so far is 9.06 with 1.35 60' on Drag Radials and 156 mph backing out of it before the traps. When it hooks it goes straight, but I have blown the tires off at over 130mph when boost comes in in 2nd gear. Now that is a fun ride. I have taken out the last cone at both HMP and HRP
Hope to see you soon.
