For Sale: 454cid Big Block Chevy

I'm selling a high performance 454cid big block Chevy. For those of you who remember my Purple '97 Z28, it's that motor.

It's a Gen VI, factory roller cam motor. It has the following:

7.4 Liter (454cid) Gen VI Chevrolet big block
9.35:1 Compression ratio
Bore: 4.250"
Stroke: 4.00"
~475hp @ 5200RPM (Desktop Dyno)
~530ft-lbs @ 2500RPM (Desktop Dyno)

Scat series 9000 crank
Scat forged HD I-beam rods with cap screws and locating dowels
Full Floating forged SpeedPro 4.250" pistons
GM Performace Parts ZZ502 hydraulic roller camshaft
-Duration @ 0.050": 224' intake, 234' exhaust
-Lift: 0.527" intake, 0.544" exhaust
Edelbrock Performer RPM Aluminum Heads
-Valves: 2.19" intake, 1.88" exhaust, swirl polished
-110cc combustion chambers
-290cc intake runners
Edelbrock Performer RPM dual plane intake manifold
Speed Demon 750cfm carbuerator
Mallory Uni-lite distributor
MSD Coil
Taylor spiro-pro 8.5mm wires
GM single roller timing chain
Moroso electric water pump
Summit racing 1.7:1 roller rockers
Custom (by me!) 2" primary headers for 4th Gen Camaro
Engine is blueprinted and balanced to 8000RPM

I'm also including a Holley "Red" electric fuel pump since the GEN VI BBC doesn't have a fuel pump boss.

I spent over $10K to build it, and I'm asking $4500 obo. I pulled it out last year in hopes of finding a 2nd gen Camaro to put it in, but I've sort of gotten into sailboats so i need to sell it to help buy equipment for my boat.

I put a 355 in it. I'm probably going to sell the car as well. I'm just not into it anymore.

I'm not sure. There was one guy who came looking at it, but that was from a different classified ad I had, not this one.
