Looking for parts to build a shortblock, or will consider complete engine. LMK what you have. I have a block with a hole in it. Thanks

I have a stock bore block and one that needs to go 40-60 over. Also have 3 cylinder heads ported and cut for bigger valves. Blocks have mains but that is all. No cranks, rods or pistons. Have other random stuff for SVO, Turbo Coupe and Xr4ti.

I have a complete, spare engine out of a 84 Turbo GT that got parted out a few years ago and a spare head, cams, turbos, etc. Let me know what you're looking for. I'm not too far.
Long story short, I need an engine to build. Kicked some rods out the side of the block in 2 places. Feel free to send me a pm with Pricing for Block/Crank, and head. I will install a set of forged rods/pistons. The car has a PTE GT35-61mm billet wheel turbo. Made over 500 to the tire before it kicked the rods.
dj9, just curious how much boost you were running to get 500hp?

The owner provided dyno sheets from the previous combination. Aftermarket pistons/rods, ported head/intake, cam, and bigger turbo. Made 525rwhp at 20psi. I'm skeptical as I know that dyno shop has inflated numbers before. However it has another turbo now which is more efficient, and makes more boost. When it goes back together I aim to back up the dyno numbers with more accurate data. Personally I think it will take more than 20psi to get there with such low compression. Time will tell.
Are you still looking for rods and pistons?
I'm not sure what the owner will let me do right now. Last we talked it was heading towards 2.5L crank, crower billet rods, and custom pistons...
I do have a new set of Crower rods and 20 over CP pistons. PM me if you are interested.

I'm interested. I assume this needs assembled. What crank does it come with?
Yes it would need assembled i believe i have a stock 2.3T crank with it. I also think i have a LA3 ECU sitting in the garage as well. and a valve cover. i would need to look at the invoice from bo to see exactly what i have in it money wise (the head/cam) to give to a price.

Found my invoices for the head/cam combo and the pistons, rods and rings here is what i have into everything (numbers are rounded down a little)

2.3 head/cam from boport- 3000
cp pistons - 500
rods - 500
Block - 150
Strap kit - 200
Machine work - 150
manifolds - 125
LA# ECU - 100
bearings - 50

Thats a total of $4775
I feel that $4225 plus shipping would be fair. Thats $550 off for parts you cant even get anymore. I attached the invoices so you can see everything used on the head.
