New Crate GM performance parts Chevy 350 HO with 330 HP motor. (60 miles or so on it)
Performer intake
Holly carburetor w/ manual choke
New McLeod clutch & Flywheel Kit
New High tourqe Powermaster starter
Long Tube headman headers (Not Installed)
Energy Systems poly suspension bushing kit
KYB shocks & struts
New Water pump
New Alternator
Four Brand new Khumo Tires exsta’s that have about 30 Miles on them
T-Tops
All steering components from pitman arm to the outer tie rods are new.
3.73 posi rear
T5 - 5sp trans (Need to be Replaced)
This started out to be a great project for me however I simply lost interest in the project after I got into Jeeps… The Body is rust free and nothing more than a few small paint chips and small dings, mostly from bumping into it while stored in the garage…
I easily have over $6K invested so I’m asking $4500.00, but i really need to get rid of the car so ANY resonable offer will be entertained… The motor alone is worth $3K new from GM. I only drove the car about 60 miles or so before the OEM T-5 locked up on me (never put trans fluid back into it after I did the Clutch swap)…
If I cant sell this car it will end up being striped of all New parts and sold for scrap, I’m tired of looking at it…

IDK it looks really nice! Do you have receipts for the motor? Is the tranny in the car? When the tranny went did it stop the motor/rear end from spinning? … get some more pictures!!

If this isnt gone by end of August, I will be taking the motor out and will part the rest or take it to the scrap. I dont care anymore.
4500 or B/O - I wont take less than three.
The trans is still in the car… Have been looking for a used T-5 to move quicker, but I rather put the money in my jeep than the car thats a thorn in my side…
I do have a recite from the motor someplace, I would have to look. Bought the motor from Gilogoly on union near the 400.
Here is the web address for the exact motor I bought.

Used T-5’s are inexpensive,($150-$300 Pending where you go) To be honest with you I just dont care to put the time & Money into it…
