350CI naturally-aspirated race motor - $5,000 (San Bernardino)

Post by 5chn3ll » Wed Oct 24, 2018 9:55 am

PRICE DROP - $5K - PLEASE BUY THIS SO I DON'T TRADE IT FOR A CORVETTE BLOWER

After much consideration, I've decided to sell my race motor. I don't have the garage space or time for a project this involved, and I'd like to free up the $$ to put into a couple of other projects I _DO_ have the time, space, and $$ to work on.

So, if you're looking for a 4-bolt-main, pre-smog small-block chevy with a mild cam and Edelbrock EVERYTHING, send me a PM. $6500.

Aiight, I'ma actually try to sell this thing...because otherwise, I'm going to do something dumb.

Crate motors sell for $3Kish; this thing has several grand worth of go-faster parts. $5K is a sweet deal for a mild (streetable) carbureted race motor.

I'm currently working a deal to swap the motor for an LT1 blower setup, either a procharger remote or something that will require a new hood and a trailer. It's time to do something interesting to the Corvette.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.

Torque: How far you will move the wall.
