How much for a stock L98 bottom end?
Just wondering. Anyone care to venture a guess? I'm talking heads w/ manifolds, block and internals. No intake. Less than $500? Or how about a whole L98 if a bottom end can't be found.
I want one so I can put it on a stand and cam it, install the heads and headers, LT1 intake, and everything else that is easier with the engine out.

That's a spankin' good deal. I will do the engine next summer after a paint job. Btw, where is that guy (Brad?) who paints cars?
Anyway, paint first, then things like more power. But I just needed a baseline for engine prices. I spent $900 for a used GTP engine then the car was crashed 2 months later. So I figured, there's more L98's out there than L67's, actually that might not be true in a few years, and there is no rediculous markup for the Supercharger.

BigWhiteGTP.... Get ahold of SRS914. He's got the complete L98 + Vortecs minus intake from my car. Good strong motor. Even better to go on a stand and be built. He was just going to slap it in and drive.

Sorry, guys I'm not thinking right now. In a year at the soonest. I just wanted to know the price range that's all.

How is it worth any more than that??? Its a cast crank, 2 bolt main, regular 350. Whoop-de-do. I just dont see it. Ill go to Ecology and pay $40 for a short block any day of the week, instead of paying too much for an L98 short block, just to say I have one.

I guess you tend to trust what you buy from someone on the board and are willing to pay a little more out of something that was just running rather than the junkyard. I know I would.
You're still happy with that tranny aren't you?
