im looking for a new motor for my 3rd gen, its got a 127k mile tired 305 tbi, and im looking for something big for a good price. pls let me know!!!

 

what's big and what's a good price?

i have a 305 tpi out of my 91 for $800. you can find factory low mileage ls1's around here for $3500, another $1,500-2k for install.

are you just looking for someones saturday special carb 350 to drop in?

 

no tpi's if i got that my cowl hood would be useless. and also, i dont want the 305 tpi cause i already have the tbi... not enough HP gain for the price... and only a 1/10th of a second faster... im looking for an lt1 or larger

 

I might have a carb'd 355 SBC up for grabs here shortly. I'm thinking of separating the car/motor/trans and selling them. It's supposed to be rated around 375hp according to the guy who built it got me a few years ago.

where are you located? how many miles, can i hear it run, and most of all, how much?

 

The motor is down in Sturgis, MI right now. I had it rebuilt a few years ago for my '74 Nova. Had the heads ported & polished, bored .30 over, lumpy cam, Holley 600cfm carb, Edelbrock aluminum intake, K&N filter, March underdrive pulleys, runs really good. It's currently in an '88 IROC but it's not hooked up to run...which is my issue with the project. I put less than 1,000 miles on the motor in the Nova as i has transmission issues with the car. Ended up selling the shell and keeping the motor, where i have all my money invested.
Pricewise, i have right around $2000 into it. Would like to get as much of that
back as i can. Let me know what you think, i can work with you.

 

about how many horse are you thinking it has? and check your PM for my info so oyu could pls contact me

The builder estimated 375hp. He's got a good rep and built a sweet motor for a friend's Chevelle that i have seen.
