Gen VI 454 Block [Archive] - Lateral-g Forums

Back on the market.................this is a crazy good deal. The block was this much by itself.....

It's a Gen VI block that has been line honed and decked. It was brand new when I bought it. It's .030 over with a 4.280 bore. It also comes with the timing cover and a remote oil filter adapter.
The crank is a scat cast external balance standard with 4.25 stroke. Rated for 700hp. I also have a professional products balancer and centerforce billet sfi flywheel with low miles.
I have a set of I beam rods(6.385) with ARP cap screws.
The cam is a crane billet hydraulic roller with press on cast gear.(For longevity) .632 lift I/E 244/256 at .050 on a 114 lsa. Made 593hp at 6k and 587 at 3700.
Also have a moroso 6 qt oil pan that fits a Camaro and multiple other cars.
It's all in good shape, the cylinders may need a bore.
I'd let it all go for $1100 firm if you pick it up.

This is a 1-piece rear main, correct?

Vegas69

12-19-2009, 10:04 PM

Can be....I have a 2 piece adapter so it's your choice of which crank shaft you want to run. For leaks the 1 piece is better. You could easily put a GM crankshaft in it. I have a centerforce external balance flywheel that would work perfect as well. I'll make you a pacage deal. :unibrow: I don't have room for it.....

That's an amazing deal. I wish I lived closer to you.

01-19-2010, 10:07 AM

I just went through this with the last buyer. He lived in Northern Cal and shipping was only $280 if I drop it off at Yellow freight here in town and you pick it up. If you can't pick it up then it's like $420 to your door. I am also going over to Hesperia CA in February. You could meet me there and save on shipping.

Todd I can't believe you haven't sold this stuff yet. If I wasn't stuck on building a 540 I would buy it from you in a heart beat. However I may know someone that may be looking for what you have I will let you know in the morning.

Vegas69

01-19-2010, 05:39 PM

Thanks.....it was pending for a week. If I had room I'd keep it. Lot's of interest, I'm sure it will be down the road soon. Let me know on your buddy.

Todd-

I am waiting for a call back from my friend that builds a bunch of Big Block Drag engines. He has someone looking for a 496 BBC I would think this might work out great for him if the guy is serious. I am supposed to get a call back today, so I will let you know. I just wanted to update you and give you a bump to the top too.

Last chance before I list the whole kit and kaboodle on Chevelles.com and Camaros.net. The block was over $1,000 all by itself. The whole enchilada is $1,100 and I'll ship it. The block is already in the crate. Here is the rest of the parts.(Dipstick and Pistons not included)

I talked to Joe today and the guy he had interested hasn't come up with the money. I would take that as he isn't serious. If I weren't dead set on 540 inches I would take it but a guys got to have goals. Good luck.

Todd,

Why do you think the cylinders might need a bore? Is that the only machine work that may be needed? Roller cam, but not the lifters, right? And you're including the 2-piece rear main seal adapter? $1,100 shipped (to Calif zip 93245)? Let me talk to the boss, er, wife, (:hail:) and give you an answer tomorrow?

Larry (no relation to jr421)

Hi Larry,
I can feel a few of the wear marks in the cylinders with a finger nail. It needs cam bearings, and it does have the 2 piece rear main seal adapter. No lifters are included. I'm firm on the $1,100, any cheaper and I'll just set it on the curb for the garbage men. :rofl: I can meet you in Hesperia or Barstow next month at no charge. Looks to be under 4 hours from you. Shipping will be around $350 if you pick it up at yellow freight. Let me know what the boss says.

I'm gonna have to let this one go. I can't tell you how she did it :unibrow: , but it has to do with her being much better looking than any of you guys here.

The kids get a kick out of sleeping on the sofa bed on weekends, so there was nowhere else for me to sleep.

Sorry Todd. Thanks for trying to make me a deal.

Todd --

I have a set of T&D Shaft rocker arms - new

I have a set of Canfield 220cc Aluminum heads

I have an intake with a EFI throttle body and all the trimmings

I've got a couple of complete motors and trannys

I've got 4 or 5 aluminum thermostat housings...

I've got 3 or 4 MSD distributors....

I've got 5 or 6 sets of various valve covers... fabricated - castings - chromed aluminum - polished aluminum...

I don't even OFFER this crap for sale - because it's too much of a hassle - so it sits and collects dust until one of my buddies "NEEDS IT" - and then it goes away free or almost free... If it was LSx stuff -- it would be "marketable" but SBC or BBC -- we're dinosaurs!! :woot: :rofl:

Vegas69

01-31-2010, 11:03 AM
