6.0 shortblock

[98nbmz]

lq4 or lq9 doesnt matter

[BAD BOB]

how much you looking to spend?

[98nbmz]

4-5 on shortblock

[98nbmz]

no 4-600 for a stock 6.0 shortblock! Thats usually what they go for or around that!

[minytrker]

Good luck for that cheap. I have seen many for $400-600. Most I see are closer to $1,000 but I also look for low mile motors. You can get a 5.3 for that price.

4-6 hundred for a block. when you say shortblock i thought you wanted a complete shortblock. srry

[BAD BOB]

i got a 5.3 i would part with

[98nbmz]

Only looking to do 6.0.. and lq based motors go for pretty cheap! guy on yb has a 5.3 and 6.0 for 600 for the pair but he is in upstate new york and shipping is pricey! Another on ls1 tech in tenn for 450.. Just really have to look around zac says he has a buddy with a full long block for 800 or 900, if i have to go that way i will. just seeing if anybody had one lying around!

6.0 shortblocks can be had for 300-500 if u know where to look, hell you can get longblocks for 800 or so

when i am in the market to buy one again i will contact you. i look on ls1tech from time to time for deals like that.

craigslist is the place to look, or just know people at dealerships, everyone on ls1tech thinks their used junk is worth the price of gold, that website has gone to hell over the past year

[BigdaddyDupree]

i bought a lq4 longblock for 400 the other day

[bwelch]

I paid $250 for a lq4 longblock with a spun bearing on craigslist.

[jmd]

i am weary to buy items off craigslist without seeing it. no telling what you will end up with. i will still keep an eye on it.

Paid 600 for longblock for 00 6.0 130k, with ecu! But Wont work with my tranny

:barf:

[BigdaddyDupree]

has the long crankshaft, mmm that suck put a turbo 350 in it.

[98nbmz]

Yup! id like to keep a 6spd for dd purposes, but who knows if i can find a deal on th400

[BigdaddyDupree]

if you wanna get rid of the t56 i may be interested. MIGHT

[98nbmz]

Has tex clutch, tic master, pro 5.0, billet flywheel

[Matts94Z28]

You don't want a three speed for a DD...

[BigdaddyDupree]

he drives a fullsize on 40's now. anything would be better

[Matts94Z28]

Exactly, but that doesn't change the fact that a th-400 is not ideal for a daily driven car. Why take a step backwards from a t-56 and 25+ mpg?

[98nbmz]

Im gonna keep the t56 trying to get robert to swap motors because he has an aluminum headed one, which he is running a turbo 350 so mine would workout good with his

[BigdaddyDupree]

he has a motor that will work with a th400 or 350. im not putting a gun to his head and telling him to do that. but if he wants to use that motor thats what hes gonna have to do. or buy another motor.

[Matts94Z28]

Put a SBC in it. lol

What some cheese with that whine? :fial:

but he has a converter made for a LS motor to a turbo 350. so he would have to get a new converter

[98nbmz]

His motor will work with the turbo 350/400 with a spacer, same motor as mine with a thinner flange, my crank has thicker flange allowing it to bolt up to it no diff, he isnt using those heads anyways, its just the shortblock that robert has

[BigdaddyDupree]

What some cheese with that whine? :fial:

stfu stupid. sorry he doesent have an LT1

[Matts94Z28]

stfu stupid. Sorry he doesent have an lt1

[Matts94Z28]

Slow and green sound good together. Ha.

[toybreaker]

can you machine the current flywheel to work with the new engine?


<-------- machinist


My shop has idle equipment I am itching to keep busy

[BAD BOB]

talk about going backwards!!! thats almost as bad as going with a LT1:finger:

[BAD BOB]

but he has a converter made for a LS motor to a turbo 350. so he would have to get a new converter

yeah i got a regular converter and using the adapter. if i went with the one for the ls crank then thats all i could be used for
