LT1 crate motor - Good source?
I've been on the Scoggins Dickie and Superior sites, and they have original GM issue long blocks... and they are PRICEY! Over $4k.
Looking for something along the lines of the ZZ4 but LT1 style. ?

I was surprised as well. Trying to build a nice high dollar is frustrating when you have to start with a used block. I wish stupid gm would make/sell standard LTx blocks or even aluminum or big bore versions !
