Engine
 

hey, i was thinking, instead of putting in cam,lifters,msd ignition stuff,head work, ect... After i get done w/ all of that i would be pushed a few grand just on the engine. Well does any one kno the options i have as far as what crate engines i could get ?...my car is a tbi and it looks hard to find somethin like that. Im lookin for somethin around 355 hp, for around 4 grand. Now is there any engines that will fit in my car w/ those specs? ....and if it is carburetored the convirsion kit would cost me around a grand for that wouldnt it?

www.sdpc2000.com should have something

thanx , but a link directly to it would be preferred to exactly wht im lookin for. Theres one that jegs sales , but im not sure if it would work, its carburetor'd , so im just asking here first before i send emails.
thanx again.

a little over $4000 but it's complete (bear in mind you could buy a short block and use your intake setup and save some money)

eh, little costly, but thanks

well you gotta pay for quality

yea, just had another thought, get mine rebuilt or bored out, then add all of my goodies im gettin into it. And mabey even throw a sc or turbo on it.

you can do that a little slower, and probably have a better quality engine (not mass produced you can get better tolerances)

Grab an LS1 out of a C5. That'll suit exactly what you're looking for.

aprox. how much would i find those for?...and would it fit directly up to my engine?...or just have to do a few minor mods to it.

it won't bolt up a used one is a couple grand

welp, i think i found out wht im going to do w/ teh engine. Theres a place localy that sponors races at the drag,ect... and all they do is engine and head work. They sell a 383 w/ over 400hp guarenteed. We've been there before to check it out and the service was great, the guy there took us back and let us look at everything they do to the engines and teh testing it goes through. Throught the build they dyno it a few times, and on the last dyno you get to go there and watch them dyno it. www.dixiemailorder.com ....if ne ones looking for new engines

im not trying to help them out ,so dont get the wrong idea, just thought it'd be helpfull to ne one who's looking.

looks like you had a good experience to me so you should tell people

hey bro i got my zz4 cam outa my 355 with no damage what so ever :eleph: also have 2 sets of hyro roller lifters and i guess i could sell ya the spider (lifter retainer so they dont spin in their bore) as well...lemme know if your still interested (i think you were it was a while ago lol)
