Vortec Headed 355

Short block has about 3hrs of run time on it, pulled it from my car and picked up the vortec heads and started running with it until I got to the point that I decided to go LSx. So time to change directions and cut my loses, I have close to 6000$ into this motor and most of the reciepts. Bottom end was assembled buy my machine shop. Currently the motor does not have the passenger side head installed so that I can show how clean it is and that it has not been run with the new heads installed. Will be assembled when purchased so that I can give the piece of mind.

-Valve train is Howards cams circle track .485/.502 cam, Howards anti pump lifters, Crane Cam 135lb seat dual springs, Cloves double roller timing chain, and Comp Cams .080 pushrods.
-Melling High volume oil pump and 7qt claimer pan with baffles, Engine has 45psi at idle and 70psi at 3500 RPM’s.
