I found this today....it's a new LT1 Longblock for $1,795....I don't know if anyone's interested but I though that was pretty cheaphttp://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...catalogid=6440

 

You mean a newly built Lt1, right. I don't believe there is such an animal as a "Lt1 long block". JMHO

 

According to the site they are NEW LT1 longblocks. Pretty good deal, too bad I have no use for it.

 

I know that GM used the 4-bolt main short blocks for replacement engines, but I really don't believe that anyone offered brand new long block engines as replacements. So where could such an animal come from unless it is just a rebuilt 2-bolt main Lt1? Just curious.

my bad: now that I actually looked at the site (didn't think I could see it) I can see how it could be a NEW engine. I just didn't think that they had any replacements left anywhere. I wonder if it is a 4-bolt. At any rate it seems like a very good deal for someone who needs a new engine.

 

Boy oh boy do I wish I had $1800 laying around.

GM PN 88894195 1995 5.7L engine $1560.00 @ gmpartsdirect.com

 

I wish they had replacements for 1996-97 engines. I know its not too hard of a task to convert, but I think I need a new hub. Do we know if they are 4-bolt mains?
