DSS Pistons, Rings, Rods, 350 Nodular Crankshaft: Balanced Assembly $350. NE TN

Up for sale is the complete, balanced assembly I was going to use in my first 350.



The pistons are DSS FX 1-6020-4100 (0.040" over) and are brand new.


In my opinion, 3 of them should be replaced due to handling/installation damage. This & the cracked block were the heart of the disagreement I had with White's. Machine shop #2 wanted a fresh start so these parts went unused. Shop #2 didn't inspect/reject any of these as I procured another core engine and we built that one up.



I didn't see any issues with the other 5:



Rings are Total Seal CR3690 105 and are new:



Crank is Nodular, OE Olds 350 from a 72 with auto trans:




The crank was not ground, only polished. There are a few fine scratches but they don't catch a finger nail. To be safe you can have the crank ground 0.010" under.

The assembly was balanced using a standard Pioneer Flexplate (FRA-102) and a Dayco Powerbond Damper (PB1147N). If you procure these the assembly will remain balanced:



Asking $350 obo for the above. I'd prefer local pickup (Johnson City, TN area) but can look into shipping.

. I also have a set of new King (EngineTech) crank/rod bearings. If you'd like these as well I'm asking $50. They are new in the plastic:

I tried to get some close-up pics of each of the 3 pistons to better explain what I saw.

2 of the 3 pistons have witness marks from installation near the wrist pins:



1 of the 2 with witness marks also has a ding on the piston skirt:


The 3rd one has a mark or gouge on the side between piston ring grooves:



All 3 have some white/gray splotches. The 5 other ones do not exhibit these but they were in a separate box:

Interested in the rod bearings. Didn't see the price change. I'd pick that stuff up if still available.

Sent you a PM. Sorry I haven't been on in a while & just found the message.

Not sure how I'd ship the crank. I don't have a box long/thick enough for it.
