BenKey Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 C5R heads are close to $3K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurbochargedBerserker Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Jeff told me his block alone was $19,000, although maybe that was the long block price -- Speedmotive has a long block with nice components for $19,995.00 -> http://www.speedomotive.com/gm_ls_1_crate_engines.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Lamanna Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Bare c5r blocks you can get for around $3,700. I'll check my contact and let you know. I'm 100% sure I can get you one if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterp Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I saw two used ones on eBay last night, $3500 & $4000, bare blocks with main girdles. And the cooling jackets were half-full of block-hard. Mr. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSport Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 You would be better off just buying an LS7 crate motor for 13,500, and putting forged pistons in it depending on what you were planning to put on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurbochargedBerserker Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 AFAIK, we can take the LQ9 block to 422 anyway. Not sure how long it would last though hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bseen Posted January 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Think I may have bought a whole motor today, I will know if it is a c5r 427 or just a 427 in a few days. Looks like I may do another motor change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
