F/S New, never fired 355LT1

Sorry for the late update, but the motor was sold to a local AmericanIron racer last week.

Thanks for looking though!


This engine was built for a car that was sold before I was ever able to piece everything together for it. I now have a 2001 SS and have no need for a gen2 motor. The motor was professionally assembled and was never started.

The mains are Milodon 4 bolt splays, assembled with ACL "H" race style Main bearings. The crank is a SCAT 4340 Forged and Nitrided crank. Lightweight PROBE "I" beam billet rods, PROBE SRS series free floated pistons w/Speed Pro plasma moly rods. The pistons also have a heat resistant coating on the head, but no skirt coatings.

I have in the neighborhood of $4k in this motor. Im willing to let it go for $2k OBO. This motor was built to run and machined and assembled by T&G's Performance in Southern California.

I am interested in the engine. Do you by chance have the build sheet from T&G's or can you get your hands on it? If so that would answer a lot of my questions and save us some time.

The pistons have a slight dish in them. The compression on a 58cc head should be in right at 10.64 and a 64cc drops that down to 9.98.

The bottom end was built tough. With the splay conversion, the bottom end should be good to upwards of 800hp according to my builder and all of the knowledge I have acquired over the years. I only used top quality stuff in this build. ALl the bearings are ACL "H" style race bearings and all the main components are quality.

I actually pieced everything together and took it all to T&G's... He just took care of the bearings, rings and then did all the machining/balancing/assembly. I might be able to get a copy of my receipt though him though for the work that he did. I built this motor a couple years back, so I don't exactly have all of the paperwork anymore.

The part numbers for everything though I can give you.

The Rods and Pistons are from Probe Industries, the crank is from SCAT.

Pistons : 12343-030
Rods : 10068

The crank though was a custom piece through SCAT. All standard dimensions, but forged from 4340 steel, then heat treated, nitrided, and then fully chamfered. Very similar to SCAT part number : 4-350-3480-5700

I built this motor for me to run, and I am hard on my stuff. This bottom end was built so I wouldn't have to worry about it.

Almost 100% that is a -4cc dish.

I was quoted shipping on this motor from CA to Missouri and the freight was only $300...

It wont be as expensive as most people think to ship this motor.
