Default Sleeved Block and Heads

I have a sleeved block with 1/2 inch head studs and the heads for sale. I bought a long block and sent it off to GTM and had them do all the machine work. They did the sleeves and studs and they did thier stage 0 package to the heads. I also did JWT springs and bought new buckets. This setup cost a lot of money. Well then had a shop assemble the block and put a custom turbo kit on it. Once everything was completed and in the dyno tuning stages the tuner blew the head gasket.

So now the fingers start pointing. Anyways had the block sent back to GTM and they tested it and everything checked out ok. After talking to a few people it was all pointed back to the tuner. Anyways long story short the car never got finished then the shop went out of business and I had to pick the car up in pieces. So I took the parts to a local machine shop and had the block decked and honed and cleaned. The heads were re-surfaced so everything is ready to be put back together.

These parts have been sitting in my dining room for a long time. I finally got around to try and get rid of them. Im just trying to recoupe a little money from this so it is priced to sell. A couple of things I will add: Im missing two stud nuts and maybe some washers. I dont know if that is a big deal to get or not. Thier are also some other studs that I will throw in with it that are smaller. I have some other misc. engine parts that if you need it to go with this just let me know. If anybody has any questions feel free to ask. Asking price is 2,500.00 shipped o.b.o Thanks for looking! [IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

Cleaning and inspecting cylinder head
Resurface cylinder head with an RA finish
Radius/5 angle valve job
Pressure testing cylinder head (cylinder head is disassembled completely)
New viton valve stem seals
(OEM valves and springs)

I had them upgraded with the JWT springs and retainers and new buckets were put in.
I cant really sell the heads by themselves because they are drilled out for half inch head studs.

I'm kinda interested in the block. What would be the price shipped to 93401 roughly? PM me.
Did the sleeves ever drop? How many miles on the block before honing etc?

No, the sleeves never dropped. I think what happen was the tuner got too aggressive with the timing to fast and then blew the head gasket. The block itself only has dyno miles because the car never made it off the dyno. I had it honed and redecked just a couple of months ago to get things cleaned up.

What happened to the Pistons, rods and crank and Cams?

Were they damaged when the head gasket blew?

Also, what about the all the front parts, covers, ect?

Thanks,

Timrod

No, parts were damaged. The car still ran when it happen but there was coolant leaking. I sold the pistons,rods and cams already. This is just a couple of parts that I have left. As far as the front parts and covers go I got screwed out of them and never got them back from the builder. I was missing a lot of parts when I had to pick up my car in pieces.
