Thats a good price. A bit less than what i paid for Stroken's short block, but his also came with the oil pickup, pan, and front cover already on it. Thats a nice block for someone who windows a block, put the new heads on, oil pan, and voila you got yourself a new engine. Im looking at buying a used (worn) engine and building it up nice and big.

really nice find...thanks

NO CORE REQUIRED I have about 10 of these engines that I will be selling on Ebay and with freight as expensive as it is I am going to sell them without a requirement for a return core. If you have a bad core, this will save you quite a bit of money.

I just asked "what are the connecting rods made of" didn't provide options of factory forged or pmr. Let's see what he says.

If he has alot of them in stock, they can put whatever rods you ask for. When i ordered mine, i paid a deposit for it, then they started building it, they didnt have them ready.

Building that 7.3 are you Kris? Good luck.

Edit: now that's some funny chit right there Jet. Too bad he will be hopelessly behind Jeremy from about the time he embarks on this quest until....




FOREVER.

I wanna hear how Jeremy's sounds. My buddy just bought another dodge, this one a 05 or 06, and its straight piped. Sounds like TOTAL ***, like a huge riceburner. Im never going to have my truck sound like that, but if it sounds different, or better, then i'd consider it heavily. I just dont need to be dumping over twenty thousand (more) dollars on just an engine at this point in my life. Don't get me wrong i would love to be 19 and driving around with a 700hp truck, however i dont make money that fast, and then regret it when i want to buy a house. Jet, you loan me 20,000 and we'll talk

I came across this when I was actually looking for wheels. I don't know much about building one up and have no NEED at this point. Just wondering if it was a fair price.

That motor was on ebay a while back. It didn't make the reserve.
