Upon selling some of my LS1 stuff, i discovered my pistons were only 3.902". This means this block can be cleaned up again and used as most LS1 shelf pistons come in at 3.905, and some at 3.907". (The sleeves are thin, and when i thought it was 3.905" i figured the block was used up).

Anyways, at the moment i am using the block for mock-up, but if anyone is interested, i’d probably let it go for $500. New LS1 blocks are over $1100-1200 i think.

The block has only ~32k on it

LS1s are much cooler than LT1s

I’ve got lots of LS1 parts of my own and around the shop to go with it too if you are building something.

there is also a clean crank from the firehawk laying around. looks like new.

also have 7 mahle forged pistons that are in great shape, and you can probably buy a single from mahle to have a complete set.

took some pictures of the block, and i found the main caps 🙂

-the block has been sitting for a few years so obviously it looks a little poopy. a .003" hone job and hot tank will clean 'er right up 🙂  
-there is a member who is ready to turn money over for his project, but if that falls through, keep 'em comin.  
-the block has also been deburred as well  
-i left some of the pics big to show detail  
-there is some very light surface rust that is in no way eating into the sleeves. it will brush right off
