Anybody have an LB9 or L98? Short or long block

I recently went through my garage, after not being able to access my parts for over a year, (family and their storage needs) and I found all of these old TPI parts left over I figured I might as well put them on an engine and at least have it around. You never know when I might get something to drop it into.

So anyone with a short or long block taking up space that they want to get rid of? Prefer something that I dont have to go through, but beggers cant be choosers

Re: Anybody have an LB9 or L98? Short or long block

James you dont need any more stuff laying around. You need to go deal with that Bronco.. I donno why your spending money on that Truck for storage that will never be finished. It's to much work needed an that's just the truth. Focus on your Camaro.

lol okay.. So I guess you know Broncos also.
Do you even know James? Well I do an he waste money on Vehicles that are dreams. You dont even know why James needs that Bronco. What I'm telling James is Gene is wanting it gone.. He doesn't make money storing things in his shop.

Re: Anybody have an LB9 or L98? Short or long block

Uh Branden I "appreciate" your help in the matter, but honestly you have no idea what you're talking about man... As far as the truck is concerned I've been waiting for God knows how long for the drivetrain to be installed. Paid for months ago. The LS3 is sitting there with the Trans and transfer case that was ordered (and consequently paid for) while I was standing there...

By the way how's that engine coming along for that q4 or whatever that you had sitting at the shop forever (see how this works?)

Re: Anybody have an LB9 or L98? Short or long block

Lol.. Serious.. That's not what I heard.. I'm just looking out for you man. BC you lose a lot of parts with storage cost. If that thing has everything why Is Gene mentioning this story?
Far as my ride its been done long time ago.. Lol.. James it didn't cost me anything while Gene found me an engine. My car was outside. See when your car is in the shop. Well my friend that's realty.

So now you can follow my lead. With your Ls3 in your Camaro. Get a Aluminum Ls3 block not no truck motor Lq9

Way to hijack a thread, Brandon. If you not have a long block to sell butt out.

Ah sorry James.. Im just trying to give the guy a heads up. I know about James situation but no need to share that with anybody. James that Infiniti was Gene first projected profits for sometime. So no it didnt go the way your thinking.
