Not sure if you've seen these....or even if he still has them. Worth a shot though!

I've got a set

They're still on the motor... 120,000 miles... I have them gone through but the motor was still running strong when pulled. Rod bearing started knocking. I've the the complete setup off of a 1997 Chevy half ton pickup. I posted in the for parts 4 sale forum.

I have a pair from a 1997 G1500 Express 350 Vortec with 57,700 miles on them. A connecting rod let go on start-up when the engine hydraulic locked on gasoline from defective poppet injectors, no damage to the heads. It is a very clean engine, will try to post pics soon. They would come complete with stock 1.5:1 self-aligning rocker arms, *****, and nuts. They are currently assembled, but could use a little cleaning.
