Default 656HP 427 for sale cheap!

Thanks everyone - the engine is sold!


I totaled my C5 Corvette on December 6th and we're parting it out. The great news is that the engine survived the crash.

The engine is a very mild LS2 with Darton sleeves 427CI. It made 656 on a Superflo engine dyno and 576RW on a DJ. The engine is being sold complete from the modified FAST 107 w/ NW 107TB to the pan and everything in between.

The top-end was redone 130 miles before the wreck:
WCCH LS3 heads with new Manley 22143 springs
New Manley Ti retainers
New CHE rockers
Johnson Link-bar lifters
Valve job

The engine was built by Shawn Miller and has a total of about 5k street miles only. 4.125 bore x 4.00 stroke. You could pull stumps with this build





From FAST to pan...$8,000 and this is a steal!

Entire build thread for this engine is in my sig.

Is that 656 rwhp N/A?? If so wow!!!!

Great price for sure and interested as well.

Comes with all brackets accessories as well? Clutch?

Man just checked your thread , so glad your ok, some scary **** mixin it up with a semi, I drove one over the road one winter when work as scarce, some guy in a honda civic ended up under my rears smashed like a bug. Thought for sure that any one in the car was dead , guy climbed out with a few scratches and a sore jaw from the air bag as he said he was screaming as he lost control and went side ways right under neath the rears .

It is! 576 on a DJ with 3.90's. I'll throw in the brackets. The RPS CC Twin Lite has about 3k miles on it and will be sold separately but I would make you a package deal.

I'm in CO, and if I can scratch a bit more up, I'd send a freight truck for it. Would you be able to get it on a pallet and crated?

One other question, if I purchased would you be able to store it for a month or two, as I'm thinking I might just make the drive and pick it up myself, maybe visit family in NY, lmk what ya think.

I'm tied up till 3rd week in feb till I would have the time to make the trip.

Thanks!

Mrs. WKMCD insisted that I order the C7.

She's a keeper.

That actually took longer than I thought at that price. Someone is getting a great motor.
