vortec heads, roller lifters, shortblock

[redbandit98]

###First off, Dont mind the car, this is a "generic" for sale thread i have on a few forums.##

hello all, Ive decided to not go through with my monte carlo ss build. I am selling the monte and all the parts i had to go with it. I was planning on a nice roller 350 for the car but have since lost interest/time/money etc. I will tell yo minus the heads and shortblock, im selling the parts for what I paid for them. Ill be loosing on the heads and shortblock. Im not in the business of asking more than what i paid for something on used parts i didnt use. I also like guns, maybe trade on some of it if needed. Here is what I have:
1. A car- 85 ss monte carlo if interested pm me, too many details/info to fill up this thread. price is 4k.

2. Vortec heads. These are nice heads, I bought them off a guy, then had them re-done. They have screw in studs, (was told they are arp cant verify), and when i had them gone through brand new comp 986-16 springs. These things have zero miles on them since my guy at the shop re-did them. I know the guy personally and he does good work. I dont have the nuts for the studs, as they guy i bought them off of didnt have them. I have almost 700 dollars in these without the 80 bucks it cost to ship them. I will let them go for 575 firm shipped. I hate doing plus shipping blah blah bc its always a pain. It will cost $$ to ship them but that is the price

3. I have a Edlebrock performer rpm intake to fit the vortecs. I bought it off a guy on thirdgen for 75 bucks shipped. He painted it with some silver paint and it comes with the carb studs. I paid 75 shipped. thats the price

4. I have set of comp roller lifters less than 1k miles. part number 850-16 bought them off a tech member for 70 shipped, thats the price as well.

5. A set of ls1 fans, also bought them from a tech member. I paid 100 shipped, that will be the price.

6. This is a metal radiator top plate from an 80s model buick. This is used when us monte guys switch to electric fans and it replaces our factory fan shroud. It does have good rubber in the notches that hold the radiator down. This is kind of a hard piece to find. I paid 40 plus 8 to ship. Well say 45 shipped.

7. and last a damn engine. I say that because I hate selling these things because everyone wants to buy but no one wants to ship. Thats the same deal here. Its a 93 model roller block. ITs been bored .040 , crank turned .010 , and has keith black hyp pistons installed. It has no miles and everything is fresh. The only thing that wasnt done was decking of the block. I dont know why they didnt but they didnt deck it. My dad works there, (long story dont talk to him much) and I got the engine back from the shop and it wasnt done. I have beat the snot out of every engine hes every built me and never had one single problem. Im guessing he was probably thinking i wanted to save some money, i dont know. I didnt want to start anything so i let it ride. no biggie. I have got about 800 bucks in the shortblock. Ill let it go for 500 as well, but you gotta come get it. Ill meet someone within 200 miles or so if your willing to split the gas.

Here are the pics, and a few of the monte. thanks for looking

EDIT: forgot to mention I have the spider and lifter retainers for the block, i guess ill let that go with the engine unless someone who buys the lifters wants to throw in an extra 10 or something and get those as well. (i bought them seperate).

would these heads fit an 87 350 block?

[redbandit98]

yes they will fit any "regular" smallblock. The only thing is you have to use a vortec intake.

[GreaseDog]

any scuffs on the lifter rollers?

[redbandit98]

no they are in great shape, i would not sell anything that I wouldnt use on my own vehicle. You can check my feed back on ls1tech. Just search redbandit98 .

thanks

[elcaminobill]

Are the roller lifters "retro" for non roller blocks or for late model roller blocks.

Please PM me.

[redbandit98]

sent you a pm, they are for a factory roller block. Thanks

[Teh Wicked]

These are the Vortec heads everyone says for a mild upgrade to the Gen I 350 right? Are they P&P, oversized valves or anything like that?

[redbandit98]

They have factory sized valves. Upgrding the valve size on the vortecs really does not give you any performance gains. They are not ported. The castings have been smoothed out a little bit but other than that they are stock. These heads flow great, and are pretty hard to find in good shape, not cracked, at a decent price. I know becuase i looked forever then decided i was too lazy to even mess with it.

[JO1995]

do the ls1 fans have the wiring harness for them?

[redbandit98]

no, was gonna order one off ebay when i put them in.

[94Blazer383]

Have the heads had anything done to the guides for higher lift cams?

[redbandit98]

yes they have been cut down to accept the high lift. I was going to run a comp xr276hr camshaft with them.

[james_8997]

PMed, i really need some lifters

[redbandit98]

sorry man, those things have been looong gone. Good luck finding another set. Try a few ls1 forums, there are always lots of stuff like that pretty cheap.
