1969 Oldsmobile G block 400 cubic inch.
Original 442 engine, running good when pulled.
No Carb, but all else intact.
$450, or best offer.
Pick-Up in Tampa/Sarasota area.

 

Any offers here before we try CL or eBay??

 

I'd throw it on FB in one of the Olds groups. A guy that's local to me just had one on there for $800. It was missing the distributor but it was a four speed motor with a flywheel and Z-bar included. I don't know what he got for it but he turned my $300 offer down (I don't really need ANOTHER 400G block anyway), and he sold it in a couple of days

 

Good idea, I don't do FB, but maybe I could persuade my to help out.

thanks

 

Is the block standard bore?
What do the water jackets look like?

 

I have not had the engine apart.
I built a 455 for my 69 Olds. The G engine was running when I pulled it. There were no problems, and it was a good running engine.
I used the carb on my new build, but I have not touched it since I put it away about 10 years ago.
Thanks for the interest.

 

Was the engine behind a automatic trans or stick?
Would you ship or local pickup only?

 

Automatic.

 

If I had the room, smoki'n deal.

 

Would you ship?
Shipping drop of at Fastenal strap to pallet ?

 

Not sure that would work.
I have not shipped a large item before.
It is possible.

 

Bumping this thread.
Hoping someone can use a good 400G, Auto. 1969.

Thanks

 

I can deliver it for a nominal fee to most places in south Georgia. For the right price, I may go as far as Atlanta.

 

just wondering if this engine had a steel crank in it... and what letter heads are on it? may be interested either way... wasn't spun was it?

 

From my experience standard 400 G non W engines
C heads
N crank

 

Should be a cast N crank with C heads. Beat me to it Bernhard.
Someone should take advantage of this engine. They aren't as bad as some
of the naysayers would tell you. With a proper rebuild that is.

 

Pm sent with offer thanks guys...

 

I will be down in your area of Florida in July would you be willing to hold it if I paid now?

 

Hello, engine has C heads, I would assume the crank is stock, but I have not taken it apart, running great when pulled.

 

It's been in my storage unit for a few years, a few more months aren't going to matter.
It is a good engine.
Mike

 

I sent an offer earlier by PM?... about 10 mins after I asked about crank... then sent a post saying I sent it... had some dinner checked inbox and now someone else is buying? hmmm wasn't how I saw this conversation going... bummer... maybe I sent to wrong person? I don't know... enjoy...

 

I am in Ohio if you can get to Florida go ahead and buy it....I will find one up North.

 

Engine has been sold.
Thanks,
Mike
