i might buy this engine what do u think is a good price

[cooltc2004]

Nah, thats not the best price in the world, and plus the reserve isn't met.

[y2icon]

i called the guy reserve is 1,300. i said i would pay that to him today and he agreed, but i just want to make sure its a good deal

[Rally Sport]

Yeah go for it dude.. its one hell of a deal IMO, how many miles btw? ALSO just to tell you how much of a deal it is.. LS1 blocks alone go for 3K and more.

[y2icon]

only a few thousand he said
usually i wouldnt trust but has 100% 75 + postive feedback

[y2icon]

too fucking late now for today cant go to bank to get the money so hopefully i win the auction

[y2icon]

Yeah.. I did, I was the only guy that had a 3rd gen Camaro last year, this year everyone had one.. so I was like.. mm gotta try something else.. so now im the only guy at school with a Monte Carlo

[y2icon]

yeah i dont want the car for girls. i have always enjoyed american muscle cars and always wanted to collect them but for now ill stick with 1 or 2. I am just hoping i can win this auction and put the ls1 in the trans am. luckily its a pick up only auction so that should limit the number of bidders i have to beat out.

[philly rs]

hell its cheaper than what im paying

[y2icon]

so everyone agrees thats a deal?

[Mr. Luos]

Disagreed.

Disassembled. Why??
Low miles?? How many is low?
No damage?? Then why is it apart??

The price is good, but the seller seems kinda odd. 350??? No one selling an LS1 would call it a 350.


Also, 1998 had the worst heads.

i think he bought it like that

low mileage he said in the 1000s

from the looks of his garage/storage area look like he is trying to make some money back. i am going to tryand go see it tomorrow with my best friend whose a mechanic to make sure its everything he says. can anyone check that casting number

[Mr. Luos]

I would most certainly go look at it before buying it. Get the casting numbers on the heads. Check ALL piston tops for valve contact. If EVERYTHING is there and in good shape, I say offer $1100 and don't take the heads. The 98 heads are worthless.

[y2icon]
