As the subject says, anybody have an interest in a low, low, low mileage LT4 or LS1? The place I work for now (Mid Atlantic Engines) has a source who can get GM surplus and test engines. These are motors that usually have only a handful of miles ... or maybe even zero! We've sold common stuff such as late-model S10 and Saturn engines, and we have a couple Pontiac Vibe (aka Toyota) engines in the warehouse now. But our source says he can get, um, interesting stuff like LS1's, and he has two complete LT4 drivetrains.

If you're interested, shoot me a e-mail at patred@xecu.net , and I can check on pricing.

Well this is kinda bad news. Apparently, our source for this GM stuff doesn't have any LT4's available. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I called today to get pricing info, and the guy (we'll just call him "Deepthroat") gave me our cost and went on to say he had two complete LT4 drivetrains from a '93 Camaro and Firebird. Sooo, it looks like they are actually LT1 drivetrains. Both have under 30K miles. Sorry to disappoint ... I was disappointed myself.

So if there's any interest, we have two '93 LT1 drivetrains available for $3,600 each. Depending on where you live, there may be a shipping fee. Each includes engine, trans, computer, wiring harness, accessories, and each has under 30,000 miles (hey, I drove a 290,000-mile LT1 to work today, so I know there's still lots of life left in those!). No warranty included (we sell JDM stuff all the time to the import crowd with no warranty). IIRC, the '93 6-speeds had a more desireable gearing for autocross, so I might be able to see if we can sell the transmissions seperately if there is interest.

On the LS1 side, there is a "reclaimed" (that's a technical/legal term for "new" (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) LS1 out of a '98 Corvette with zero miles for $5,000. It's just the engine but includes exhaust manifold and all the intake stuff (manifold, injectors, fuel rail, plenum ... and probably throttle body but I'll have to check and make sure).

Other interesting stuff Deepthroat has are basically complete Corvettes minus the frame and body. Engine, trans, axles, steering rack, rear ends, wheels, etc all in one complete package. Anything from a '99 Corvette to an '04 Z06! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Unfortunately, he won't sell individual pieces because he can get good coin for the entire packages from kit-car dealers (there are some kits that just bolt right into the Corvette chassis). But I have pricing info if you really want to know (be prepared to spend an easy 5 figures!).

Anyway, sorry the LT4 stuff didn't come through. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) If you have any interest in the other stuff, let me know.
