Can't believe no one hasn't bought this from you yet. If I hadn't already gotten one last year that I am currently building, I would of loved to have gotten this one. People don't realize what a good deal this is. I've got nearly $1300.00 in just the valve train alone since I am going with the retro-roller setup as well. This motor when built should pull serious torque. Did you try Nasty Z-28 forums? Guys there know what these motors can do when built. Good luck in your sale..
Thanks alot man. It seems people want to go fast and do it cheap. Lol there is no such thing. Ive decided that since i havent had any decent offers i think im just going to stuff it in my 2wd 86 pkup and see how that works for me. Once again thanks for ups.

Here Here I agree These motors are serious I knew a guy who was running 10s with one in his 55 chevy in street trim id be all over it if I hadnt pissed all my money away building a 355.
You can get 450 horse and nearly 500lb ft of torque out of one these engines and that's naturally aspirated. I'm putting a set of the new Patriot Super Street 215cc heads on mine with a retro hydraulic roller cam. I guess if you are in an area with emission testing you could have a problem but if not, this would be one fun motor to finish. Again, good luck with sale...
