Anyone have a L98 roller block they can part with?? Or know where there is one at a reasonable price in South eastern MI or Northern OH or Fort Wayne IN?????

I havent purchased a 87+ block before, just older ones. Is $100-150 about right?

 

My freind has a 350 block that he is not using. It is just the block nothing else, well maybe the crack, I think he wants about 200 for it. If this is what you want we live around Chicago i'll ask him if we wants to sell it.

 

i have an 010 block for sale.....has crank, rods, block, and main caps. also have L98 heads for it. It's a 70s block. Want $175 for it. This is a two peice main seal as well.

 

Sorry I have the complete block, its just not together he well sell the whole thing just not together for around 300

 

I have (4) 010 blocks, a few 400s, and lots of other crap....

I just dont have what I want.... an 87+ L98 roller block

I had 2 chances to get different sets of 083 heads for $50..So mad that I didnt now.... GRRR

 

will trade L98 block for a 400 block-complete-crank rods, etc. i have one L98 lying around. wanna swap?

 

hello
L98 is that the 305 block or the 350 block. if it is the 305 I have a roller from a 1987 formula HO that has been freshed around 35xxx miles ago with the # correct heads. It is running in my elky right now untill i get the 383 completed.

I am in souther MN

let me know if this will work for you

Sorry man, the L98 is the 350. A lot of people end up having to give away their 305 to get it out of the garage... bummer

 

I heard that I can stroke a 305 to a 340
is that true? what if I used a 340 stroked 305 to make my turbo motor out off? I think that I would have flow problems because of the small bore what do you think?

thanks
rick

 

I think you answered your own question


Start with a 350 or 400 block

 

your right

 

So if anyone has an L98 block, now would be a great time to speak up.

I have free machine work for the next 3 weeks.

 

I have an "880" Vortec block. It's in the trunk of my Caprice right now.

4 bolt mains, roller cam, 1pc rear seal.

But I'm southwest, MI. I can take pictures of the bore and casting number if you want verification.
*edit* Just found the rest of it. Crank, rosd (caps are mixed up), pistons on rods, factory roller valve train, and vortec "906" heads.

 

I have a complete 87 350 TPI, you still Lookin ?

you want just the block ? let me know
I am located in Lake City Minnesota

 

so that's a no ? LOL

 

How much for the block?

 

how about an offer, and what you want included ?

right now it is complete, but I will take off whatever you dont want.

If you dont want to make an offer please at least tell me what you want included if anything and I will research and try to figure out what it is worth.

MN is too far for me...lol

 

thank you for your reply.

yep, I dont like driving too far to get anything either, once I drove to Illinois but that was to get 2 thirdgen verts :-)

 

Right now I'm just halfway searching for a bare block to "possibly" throw a 383 rotating assembly into. Nothing else needed but the cam thrust plate. Must be two bolt block... MN isn't to far for me. I travel up to the home office in Bloomington once a month or so... How far awy is Lake City???

 

well letme see , I travel for work down to Iowa sometimes, I go to Mt Pleasant Iowa and it takes me bout 5 hours to drive from Lake City to Mt pleasant.

plus you would be visiting beautiful lake city Mn. birthplace of water skiing, home of many bars, fast girls and slow cars

 

Im looking for just the block. Doesn't need to have anything on it. Even if the oil galley plugs are out that's fine. Let me know how much your lookign to get for just the block. Maybe we can work something out, IE a trade or something. I'll even disassemble it for you.

Soooooo, how much are we talkin, just for the block???
