Default Parting Out Performance LT1 Engine

This was in my 93 Trans Am, but since I'm moving back into the twin turbo C5 I had to sell (yaay!!!!) I'm mothballing the turbo T/A. Figured I'd post some stuff up here because an LT1 is an LT1.

HEADS/INTAKE

Lloyd Elliott ported Trick Flow 195 heads. These were bought as bare castings in 2005. VERY strong mid range flow numbers, peaked at about 305@.600 and about 220@.600, I saw them flowed on an independent bench in person. 218CC Intake runners. Two issues: I installed helicoils for teh intake manifold bolt holes in car. They're not perfectly straight. And the #7 spark plug hole is tight running a plug in and out. It's buggered some. Rocker studs are separate from the heads. New Alex Parts valve seals installed, car has not been run with them yet. Has the BIG comp beehive springs installed in them. Looking for $1400 for these.

Lloyd Elliott ported LT4 intake manifold. Best suited for these heads as porting was done at the same time. Powdercoated black, and has a -6AN fitting welded to the back flat for an oil return via scavenge pump. $600

Will do a package deal on the heads/manifold for $1900.

VALVETRAIN:

Comp Pro Magnum Rockers, non self aligning, 1.6 ratio. Pic1 Pic2 Pic3 Pic4 -- $225 SOLD

Manley 25729-16 Pushrods, 7.1" length, 5/16 diameter, chromemoly -- $75 SOLD

Trick Flow 30400623-8 Guideplates -- $30 SOLD

LE Spec Lunati ground turbo cam. 223/223, .57x/.57x, 113* LSA -- NEVER run, only installed -- $300

Lunati 72430 Tie Bar Lifters -- $500

Will do a package deal on the valvetrain stuff listed above for $1000

Will do a package deal on heads/manifold/valvetrain stuff for $2750

Shortblock:

383 CID. Lunati Sledgehammer 3.75" crankshaft (not available anymore, comparable to Callies Dragonslayer, was almost $800 new). Lunati Pro Billet Connecting Rods (these are almost $1300 currently) 6" length. Custom dished diamond Pistons for boost (don't remember the exact numbers). Block fully clearanced for the larger stroke. Has O-Ring grooves in the block for each cylinder. Milodon oil pan (couple of bumps on the bottom, nothing major). High pressure oil pump (NOT a H/V). NOT going to tear the shortblock down. $2500

Will Sell Shortblock plus Heads/Manifold/Valve Covers (no valvetrain stuff) for $5000 // Will Sell entire motor from pan to manifold for $6000

Misc Engine:

LT4 Valve Covers (impossible to find anymore), two passenger side units, with 2 metco -10AN oil filler adapters for breather tanks -- PIC-- $400
