Default FS: OEM LS7 Crankshaft and Titanium Rods

Rods and crankshaft sold.
I'm going to be stroking my LS7 which means I will have a set of Katech bushed OEM titanium rods and an OEM LS7 crankshaft for sale (CRANKSHAFT SOLD). They are being pulled from a running motor that has about 17,000 miles on it (about 50% street and 50% HPDE).

I believe the rods retail for about $3,500 a set and Katech charges around $500 to rebush them. I'm asking $1,275 for the bushed rods and $575 for the crank plus shipping or the parts can be picked up in South Florida.

Price reduced to $1,175 for the rods!

Price reduced again on the Katech bushed rods! $1,075

I'm interested in the rods but not the crank, although I can't say I could spend more than $800 since I'm buying purely on speculation. In fact it could be kind of a silly purchase since what I really want to build is a 500 CID

Cheers, Paul.

whatch your piston design. my 4.125 stroke 454 LS7 combo using stock Ti rods had some moderate piston rock at the bottom of the stroke in darton dry liners.

enough so that every leak down test gave me a new number every time sometimes 8-10 pts off the previous

throw a fast 102 on a 427 and be done. I got MORE torque with this combo than I did with the 454.... and it had a LARGER cam.

I'll PM you my # if you want to discuss. Coming to Colorado to ride this season? I just picked up a pair of nice fatties.

Used crankshaft sold but I also have a brand new LS7 factory crank I can sell with the rods if someone needs it.
