305 or 350 wanted, also interested in Weiand 142/144
Here's what I'm looking around for:
305 - Must be TPI, do not want an L03 or carb motor. May consider an L69. Need EVERYTHING, complete with accessories, harness, ECM, all of it to swap right in for the LB9s. I won't consider anything that consumes oil. If you've got a decent LB9 you're looking to get rid of that's completely ready to swap into a non-3rd gen, I may get you an offer you'll like. If you're willing to sell your LB9 as a shortblock, I may consider it, depending on price.
350 - Will do pretty much anything that has sound internals. No oil consumption or leaks or blow-by, something that is verifiably in good condition, and that includes no coolant problems. TPI would be great, but will need the harness and ECM, otherwise I'm only interested in the shortblock (block, heads, cam). I'll consider ANY 350 shortblock that is in good running condition with no fluid leaks or consumption. I've already got an intake and carb ready.
Weiand 142/144 - If you've got one with good internals (rotors) and works fine, than I'm interested. I could care less about cosmetic defects, this car is not for show. If you've got one with horrible scratches and pits, as long as she puts out the boost and doesn't have any mechanical defects I'm interested. I'll consider pretty much anything under $1000 that is mechanically sound and ready to bolt up to a small block Chevy.

I settled on a low mileage LG4 that buddy gave me to give the 350 a rest, so no need for a motor now. Thanks to all who sent me PMs. Still interested in any Weiand 142 / Holley 144s out there!
