Big Dre 72 Jan 28th, 07, 11:26 PM I was offered an aftermarket shortblock and I am interested in buying it.Can you point me in the direction on what to look for? It is supposed to be 434 cu in set up.I think he said it was a Motown or Dart block,brand new and never ran.It has Ross forged pistons. It needs a cam,oil pump,and pan.What be a good price? Thanks. Big Dre 72 Jan 30th, 07, 12:06 AM anybody? novaderrik Jan 30th, 07, 2:40 AM start at $50 and see how cheap you can get it.. really.. Tom Mobley Jan 30th, 07, 8:03 AM info is kinda sketchy, do they actually not know what is in it? most 434 setups are going to be fairly serious dollars, you really ought to be able a decent rundown of what exactly is in it. If not, I'd pass. GM PARTS1 Jan 30th, 07, 10:33 AM Stay away and put your money in Bigblock. I takes some "really good heads" to make a large small block run worth anything. If it blows up all that crap is custom. Blow up a bigblock and it's all standard cheap stuff anyone can replace. Big Dre 72 Feb 3rd, 07, 11:05 PM I just picked it up for $2000.00, does this sound fair? Will it accept my factory accessories? Tom Mobley Feb 4th, 07, 12:03 AM the bolt holes will be there, that's about all you can say. do you know what pistons are in it, what compression ratio it will give? Big Dre 72 Feb 4th, 07, 12:40 AM According to the seller it is a custom Ross piston,so it can run on 91 octane.Compression ratio he was not sure. pdq67 Feb 4th, 07, 12:54 AM Heck, the block should be worth close to that if it is still a decent bore size.. What are ROSS pistons now?? $600/set?? pdq67 Big Dre 72 Feb 4th, 07, 1:27 AM brand new block. has never been cut. | ||
