Alright engine sold today, 500$.
Thanks for all the input guys, now as far as the 0.060 over being a thin line, yeah i agree i can see that. However i did have paperwork with the engine from the shop in SC, and i mean it really is a SOLID runner, all the parts + stand she was worth 500$. It's a shame though because the guy is going to use it as a circle track engine, it had all the goodies to be a kickass daily driver.
Oh and i'm up in PA right now not NC lol, yeah i wouldn't expect someone to drive 10 hours for a SBC 350 shortblock. You'd be more in cost of gas lol
Its a hard sell because its an unusable core. First, its a 360ci SBC, not a 358, second, its no longer rebuildable at 0.060 over.
So its a crap shoot for someone.
You might get lucky with someone that needs the roller set up, the unknown cam makes even that a stretch.
I would change the add to feature the roller set up, the one head, the new water pump, and hell, even the engine stand. Then I would list it at $350 firm. It will go.
^Not to be rude but that kind've pissed me off and here's why.
A 350 bored 060 over is a 358, do you're homework friend.
An unusable core? i had paperwork to go with the engine, it was basically a NEW bottom end and you wouldn't have any problems if built right. Second, if the engine did blow up and say only spun a main bearing, how is the block then shot too?
A crap shoot? No, get real and look at what you're buying for sucks sake.
As far as the roller setup goes, yeah it was basically unknown as to what it was, all i know is the cam profile was similar/matched to what went into camaros from the late 80's.
Well i've got to see this muncie M22 i've got, then i'm hittin' the road.
