ok my 402 dilemma, so no **** there I was in Iraq back in 2007 towards the end of my second tour. I was in the midst of buying all kinds of stuff for my 2001 Z06 the love of my life. I bought a TTi stage x kit outright over the phone and a few other big ticket items then i decided i was gunna get a kick *** short block made. So i decided that i wanted to work with chad golen after reading an article in GMHTP, thanks rick and all the staff you guys kept me sane over there, so i called him and began to make arrangements for a custom 402 short block to be built. I told them there was no rush i had a few months till i was going to be done with my 15 month tour. So I put my deposit down and i tell him ill give him an address when i get back and things settle down. well needless to say im now writing about how i have a sweet *** block in my tt Z06, in fact non of that happend. like an idiot i found a new "love" and she sucked up my money and time. now almost 2 years later the Z is gone, but im trying to get this thing rolling again i have a FRC and the tt kit and parts im trying to sell to get it all together and a block i cant finish paying on and that chad is trying to sell so he can refund me. so if any one out there is looking for a fully forged ls2 402 with diamond pistons callies crank and rods and billet main caps let me know or call chad at golen engine service and let him know. thanks for reading this i just had to vent a bit

 

I can vouch for Mike: This guy drove all the way from Upstate New York to help me put a supercharger on my car; he is a great friend and a very stand up individual

 

Thanks Sam and when you come up are we putting the fast 90 on?

 

I hope she had/has one magic 'gina.

Good luck.

 

I don't care how "magic" it was, they ALL have teeth!!!!!!!!!!

 

Good luck with selling all the parts. I'm sure there will be some interested members here.

 

Good luck with the sale

 

mike is a good guy!!! someone has to need a great block, and want to help a fellow gearhead get his new build off the ground.

 

thanks Mitch, so i just got off the phone with Chad. He said that the total price of the short block is $5400, but if any one wants anything extra done he can work that in such as l92 heads, a specific cam or even a dyno run. Chad said for any one interested to call him at (800) 591-9171 or (603) 886-3800 hes on extension 1 for sales and just reference my name(Mike Wright) and the ls2 402 stoker you can also email him chad@golenengineservice.com

 

Thanks for your service and good luck with your sale!
