Anyone interested in a stroked 97 SS?

1997 SS
Way its looking right now Im going to have to sell my car to get the house I want..This is the last thing I want to do is sell my car but If someone comes up with the money I would probably do it right now..

1997 SS w/ 74k miles on the odo.
4 new tires (Kumhos up front,Nitto 555R's on back w/ 100 miles)
T-Tops, All SS options,power everything,Alpine CD player,M6

Bottem End-
383 block w/ Forged eagle 6" rods,Forged SRP Flat-top pistons
(-4CCdish),Forged Eagle Crank. HV Melling oil pump, Canton 6qrt oil pan w/ baffles and trap doors for hard cornering.I had splayed 4 bolt main caps installed since I knew this motor would make over 600rwhp on the spray in the future.

Top-End-
Ported Lt1 heads that flow great at lower lift numbers which I what I wanted..Flow at .600" was 280/195 if you would like to know that. Port-Matched intake. Chromoley Pushrods/Crane Dual Springs good for .700"/Titanium Retainers/Comp 1.6" ProMagnum Rockers/Comp R Lifters/ARP head bolts/GTP-6 cam(235/242 .568"/.592" 112ls)

Drivetrain-
SPEC stage 3 carbon clutch which I love!
Pro 5.0 shifter
Stock T-56 which has 0 problems
Custom Steel DS
Moser 12 bolt w/ 4.11's and every upgraded option available(whines a tad)

Fuel-
30lb Accel Injectors/Walbro 340 Fuel Pump w/ upgraded wiring harness to get voltage of the Alternator at WOT

Appearance/Exhaust-
Chrome ZR1 wheels(6mnths old)
Hooker LT's with custom y-pipe/Electric Cutout
Goes thru Borla exhaust when capped.
Shiftlight on A-pillar

I built this motor for Nitrous but I never purchased a kit and NEVER ran spray on this motor....I was eventually going to spray a 200 shot, which my engine builder said it would hold a 250 easily..My friend in La. has the same motor and it has taken his abuse for 3yrs w/ a 250shot. I am running 11.5 to 1 compression for the purpose of the spray.

If you want a 11sec car on motor and 10's possibly 9's on spray this is the one..The car runs great still getting 18mpg. Only driven on the weekend or if its nice outside.

If interested let me know..I hope I dont end up having to sell it
Im sure I left things out so PM if you have any questions..

I would entertain offers around 16k...few older pics in my sig.

Thanks

Cody

Cody, what's the deal? Can't wait a little longer and keep the car?

Guys, this car is one of the cleanest LT1s I've ever seen. The paint on this thing is flawless. Cody is a standup guy.

Thanks for the kind words Ryan...Being as young as am is hard enough to get a house and the car isnt making it easy...Trust me..I want to keep it but I think if someone came up with the money I would let it go..I dont even want to figure how much money/time I have in it

Few offers but Im fairly set on 16k right now..Afterall, theres only 7k in the motor,2300 in the rearend,2k in rims/tires,etc...I think thats a more than fair price..Car is in MINT condition! I have people come up to me asking if its an 01/02 until they see the front clip is an LT1..If you wanna see the car in person let me know and we can arrange for it..

PM'd ya. And btw, if I do end up having to sell my '02 and end up buying yours, $16k sounds like a fair price to me.
