FS: Fully-forged LT1 383 shortblock...

I have a pretty nasty 383 LT1 motor for sale...

383 solid roller LT1 motor = This motor should make around 475rwhp. has a custom solid roller Cam Motions camshaft, Cloyes double-roller timing chain, B&M flexplate, ATI Super dampner, Callies 3.75 Dragonslayer fully forged crankshaft, Lunati 5.85 Pro Mod Rods, JE flat top forged nitrous pistons, Clevite H series main and rod bearings, Callies 4-bolt billet splayed main caps, ARP main studs and ARP rod bolts, Brand new freeze plugs and cam bearings. The block was hot tanked, bored and honed with plate, decked block, line bore, line hone, clearance for the stroker, rotating assembly is internally balanced, pistons and rods were honed, and everything is assembled. I have 1220.00 in machine work, a 800.00 crank, 630.00 rods, 500.00 pistons, 80.00 main studs, 19.00 cam bearings, 11.00 freeze plugs, 65.00 flexplate, 80.00 timing set, 400.00 super dampner, 110 main bearings, 110 rod bearings, 200 main caps, 400.00 custom ground cam.

So that is 4625 dollars in this shortblock. No expense was spared. I will let it go for 4000.00 Since I know that is a lot of money for most people, I am prepared to setup a payment plan if need be. I know tax refunds will be coming in a couple months.

This is a great street/strip motor that is going to go very fast in the right car. I have all receipts on this motor from parts to machine work. The motor has never been fired, but it is fully assembled.

I have pics available if you are interested.
Let me know and please email as my PMs fill up too fast

Guys this is somewhat OBO. I am not going to come down like 1000.00 but I am negotiable as it is just sitting on an engine stand in the garage.

I will definately keep you in mind. I am not in a huge hurry to sell it, because the money is just going towards a downpayment on my new house in April. I'll keep you posted.

Do you still have the heads that you mentioned for sale? I'm building a 383 myself, and am looking for a good set of heads for it. If so, or if you have a lead on a good set email me at My31bird@aol.com

Thanks
Brandon
