  • Anyone looking for an LT1 built for boost?

    My boost-friendly motor for my 94 Formula is currently disassembled but is ready for assembly. I'm considering selling everything from it except for the heads. Is anyone looking for a very stout LT1 bottom end built to handle a lot of boost? Have a small-ish boost-friendly cam and other misc. top end pieces (Meziere HD water pump, Comp Hi-tech rockers, stud girdle, Comp lifters, ported intake, stuff like that) that could go with it too. I don't have a price in mind yet and am not positive I'm selling everything, just trying to see if there's actually a market for this around here.

    Everything is brand new and has never been run. The machine work is excellent and it has a lot of nice parts. Just needs to be assembled.

    Basic specs are as follows:

    383ci
    Machine work by Dave Harmon @ Enginecraft
    LT1 block - fully prepped and machined w/ torque plates
    4.030" bore
    Water jackets 1/2 filled w/ hard block
    4-bolt billet splayed mains
    Deck square @ <20RA
    Dura Bond HP Cam Bearings
    ACL H-series Rod & Main Bearings

    Internally Balanced Rotating Assembly
    Cola 3.75" 4340 Forged Crank
    6.0" 4340 Forged Rods w/ ARP2000 bolts (can't remember brand, they look identical to Lunati Pro Mod rods)
    JE Forged Custom Blower Pistons (8.5:1 compression, I think they're about -31cc)
    Total Seal Stainless Steel Rings
    ARP Studs throughout engine

    Smoothed intake valley for better oil drainback
    Melling High Pressure High Volume Oil Pump
    Stock Oil Pan w/ -AN fitting for blower

      As I said in the post I hadn't really thought of a price yet, but for the shortblock I'd probably start around $3,750. These are high-dollar parts and the machine work wasn't exactly cheap either.

        Nothing negative to the people on this site but I highly doubt you will find a buyer for that on this site inless you are giving it away.

            Sounds like one hell of a nice engine there. Especially like the torque plate boring. When the heads go on, they'll be perfectly round. Very little seating time. GLWS.

              Thanks! It was built with the intention of conservatively supporting 900+ crank horsepower in a street application. There was a lot more machining than just what I listed. Dave is meticulous when it comes to his machine work.
