406 SBC

So I am deciding to sell the 406 that is in my camaro. I would say it has about 20k on it, Motor is very clean, runs very strong. I am wanting to build my own motor, I bought my car with this motor in it. It is still currently in the car, I drive it everyday and it actually doesnt use much gas. It is being sold as a complete engine, pan to intake. Now for the good part. The engine is bored .30 over, mains .10, Melling high volume oil pump, Factory rods, flat top pistons, Heads were taken off and re done( stock 400 heads), Flat Tappet cam( supposed to be a comp cam), Delco HEI distributor, 8 mm wires, 1 pc seal, Chrome dress up kit, and thats about all I know about the engine. I am not here to rip anyone off, I bought this car from a friend and I trust what he told me about the engine, It pulls like it was built very well. I am wanting $1000 with out the accesories, $1200 with the Serpentine setup. I will have a video tomorrow of it running if anyone local wants it they can drive the car to make their own decision before I pull the engine.

well, I havent had the pan off, Just figured it has a 1 piece, because they put 2 piece seals on the newer engines.
