Default 1996 Collectors Edition

1996 Collectors Edition LT4 6 speed.
$3500
Engine has vibration, loss of power, and loss of oil pressure once warm.
Could be a main bearing or damaged crank shaft? This happened about 800 miles after a major overhaul.
It is not the oil pump or rod bearings.
Basically it looks like the engine will have to come out of the car again and i don't think I have the time or resources to repair this anytime soon.
Dropped a valve seat a few months ago. Completely re-did the heads, new pistons/rings, rod bearings. Replaced a bunch of other engine parts while the motor was out. Engine had 97k miles on it when the seat was dropped.
New steering rack/outer tie rods with alignment done last week.
New clutch and lightweight flywheel
New weatherstripping
new hawk hps pads and fluid flush
new rear tires
All fluids replaced, trans/diff
Paint is in excellent condition, car was resprayed. Headliner replaced.

Car is currently registered and located in Santa Cruz California
I can upload way more photos. These are some old ones I had on my PC.
Thanks for looking!

Oops. Never mind. I just saw your posting from yesterday about putting a new LT4 into the car, which I presume to mean you are not selling it (at least with the broken engine). Maybe I will see you around Santa Cruz in that car!

I'll give you $5,000 for the CE with the replaced engine.
