Default Wicked 383 shortblock for sale

I've got a 383 shortblock from a customer's car I'm pulling to make room for a supercharged 377. This motor has less than 5k miles on it and is bulletproof...It also isn't cheap...
-OEM 4-bolt roller block. Bored to 4.030" and honed on a Sunnen CK10 with BHJ plates. Align honed, squared and decked to .010" deck height, lifter bores trued. ARP main studs. Milodon two-piece rear main seal adapter.
-Callies 4340 'Racemaster' crankshaft. 3.75" stroke. Crossdrilled mains for oiling, rod journals drilled, counterweights profiled for lighter weight. Internally balanced with Mallory.
-Callies billet 5.7" connecting rods. ARP 210k cap screws. Profiled for stroker clearance. Bronze bushed small end for floating pins.
-TRW Lightweight forged flat-top pistons. Match balanced. 10.82:1 compression with 64cc combustion chambers.
-Speed Pro Moly file-fit rings.
-Oliver/King's bearings. Clearances blueprinted.
-Melling M55HV high volume oil pump with blueprinted clearances.
-Milodon 'Diamond Scraper' windage tray.
-Moroso 7 qt. kick-out oil pan, passenger side dipstick.
-Crane custom ground hydraulic roller camshaft. 230/238 duration at .050". .575/.595 lift with 1.6 rockers. Ground on a 114 LSA with reduced base circles for stroker clearance.
-Crane hydraulic roller lifters (OEM type); custom length for reduced base circle cam.
-Crane double roller, multi-keyway timing chain.
-GM Performance Parts timing cover and tab.
-GM Performance Parts 6.75" steel harmonic damper.
-All ARP fasteners.
This shortblock was the basis for a 530 horsepower EFI motor. It is a first rate shortblock and the only thing that would make it stronger would be the addition of a Bowtie block. I will do a 'clean up' hone and install new file-fit rings before it leaves so it will be fresh. Take this bulletproof bottom end and a killer set of heads and intake and you've got a nasty 383 that will live forever!! As I said, the price isn't cheap, but this isn't the usual 'rebuilder special' either... Price is $4,000.00.

PS- I guess I should've clarified, but this is a standard SBC, not an LT1.

Is it an "LT" block? If not, do you know about what year it is?

By LT block, do you mean LT1?? If so, no, it's a standard SBC not an LT1. The block was a brand new GM block; I built the motor two years ago.
