just putting this out there to see if there is any interest.

It a SBC 388

Bowtie Block iron block (casting #184)
Brodix Heads (cast #11)*(New valves)
Callies 4340 knife edged crank
Mahle 4340 Rods
Ross forged pistons *4.060
Billet Main Caps
Custom Lunati Cam
Crower billet rockers
Custom Holley HP 750cfm (actually flows around 950cfm)
SFI Balancer
C/R is 13.75-1
havent dyno'd it, but would definetly be over 600+hp and crazy amounts of TQ!!..my guess is 750+
engine is straight out of the machine shop and only has about 15-20 miles on it...i know my sig says " Lots of SPray" but engine has never been sprayed. never got far enough in the project to get the kit on it. this engine was built for nitrous though. this block i capable of holding 1500hp+. i had it in my s-10 with a 6 speed, want to go in a different direction. im gonna put my old 383 back in my s-10. it will also be for sale.

looking for $7500 for the engine. i have well over 10k in this engine with machine work. built with only top quality parts!~

That looks like a "right on motor".

Lots of good parts, you definatly could not build this motor for what you are asking.

Thanks Jack

Hopefully someone has a car that can handle this Engine!
It was naive of my to think i could just put it in a 2700# s-10 with stock suspension and a 6 speed...what a bonehead move...like usual..someone will benefit from my actions!

and of course the entire engine is ARP, top to bottom!
 
I would love to get this but it's bad timing on my end... way too many irons in the fire. Good luck with the sale.

thanks Todd...you started to for your engine yet!

No, waiting to get it back from paint and get my shop completed then the motor is coming out :D

I'm using the s-10 as a daily for this year and possibly next year then I'm going tear that POS apart and build a drag truck out of it.
