Tim240z Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Well, after all the talk lately about CARB proposing to delete the smog exemptions I started looking around for another engine (the one I have is out of a 69 Truck). Well, I got a LT1 with T56 and all the goodies for $1400. It's still in it's host Camaro so I fired it up...no smoke....purrs like a kitten (actually lion cub). Could not drive it (parked in a shop surrounded by blueovals), but I put it in gear with the brake on and it seemed ok. I'm really stoked .....going back on Sat. to pull it out.

Mike C Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Smokin' deal, dude! I got a couple of LT1s about a month ago. One a high mileage cop car motor with all accessories, wiring etc. and the other a 30k mile motor from a '96 SS Camaro with CNC ported heads and a Crane roller. Paid a $1000 for both, but to get the tranny also, what a score! (I still don't feel bad, though!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 LT1 and T56, exactly what i wanna do, let me know how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted March 26, 2002 Author Share Posted March 26, 2002 is that in leiu of what we have been talking about? Scottie,Yes, obviously this is a deal that is difficult to pass up. I had assumed since I didn't hear from you or Mike, that the engine sold at the swap meet. Thanksfor the all the consideration . I think that the shipping from Fla. would have been a deal killer though Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
