2000 Small Block 5.7 Crate Motor

[macker914]

I am wanting to sell the motor that is in my Camaro right now....2000 5.7 crate engine.....about 8,000 miles on motor.

Everything from the computer, to the pan (no front accessories) ------$800.00

[ikeyballz]

front accesories = power steering, etc? is it a turn key engine, and Lt1/LS?

[macker914]

Not an LSx motor, just a 4bolt main 350.......it is currently in my car, so yeah, turnkey.
I will try to find the receipt..

damn if hw would have said ls1 i would have paid him right away...maaaaan i was about to bust one off lol...i still have dreams about that ls1 i almost got into my rs b4 i totaled her...smh

ls1's are nice, but you can make big power cheaper.

[philly rs]

with what??

[daveshapellSVT]

pretty much any small block chevy lol LS1's are better and make power easier with whats out there at times, but you can make a ton of power with a well planned out carbed small block at a fraction of the cost. look at it this way a ls1 crate motor sells for at least 5k( at the very cheapest) and you get an under rated 335hp. You can also get a GM crate motor turn key thats set up for carb with your choice of 260-400hp for 1200-5000 bucks.. be cheaper if you built the motor yourself with even better components. not saying an ls1 crate motor isn't a good choice just too expensive for me.
