coffee table

maybe the bare block if I part it out..LOL the long block would make a shitty table

 

[skeezer]

part it out

 

[SirMarco]

You should give the heads to me

 

[skeezer]

i'll give you 400 bucks for everything

 

[Riski]

i'll give you 400 bucks for everything

Thats a fair offer......the LS6 intake is only worth 300

 

[Riski]

Put 50wt oil in it, and sell it on craigslist like everyone else

 

[skeezer]

400 bucks takes everything off your hands. don't have to worry about it anymore.

 

[JDHedman]

$4,000 bucks takes everything off your hands. don't have to worry about it anymore.

I could use 4 grand .. I might take you up on that ...

 

[Angus]

can you replace the crank and bearings and sell as complete longblock?

 

[JDHedman]

I could have the crank turned and have matching bearing made. .

but would it be worth it?

 

[JDHedman]

and say I do part it out.. I know the ls6 intakes go for around $300 but what about everything else?

 

[skeezer]

400-500 bucks in machine work and bearings later if you do it right.

sounds like you should just sell me all that shit for $350

 

[JDHedman]

what would a fair price be for the long block as is? will be missing all accessories and sensors and will come with a ls7 clutch and ls7 flywheel

 

[skeezer]

i sold a broke dick shortblock for 250 bucks.

i would tear it down minus the rotating assembly and part it out.

less hassle trying to explain the problems to everyone.

plus you'll get everyone trying to rape you on the price.

save yourself the hassle and sell it all to me for $325.

I thought the new bearings fixed it? Did it re-spin the bearing?

 

[JDHedman]

Yea It respun.. as expected.. Without having the crank turned I didnt expect it to last to long. I did get about 700 miles out of it before it spun again and its not even loud yet.

 

[JDHedman]

I have tried searching other site to see what used parts are going for.. but havent had much luck.. what are the heads worth? would anyone buy used pistons, oil pump or timing chain?

^^^^^^^^^

Likes this. Thank you for making me laugh!

 

[Stink Star]

I wish I had the money to buy the ls7 clutch and flywheel from you...

 

[pewterz55]

id probably take that ls6 tb and intake off your hands if you part out
