488 engine base

FOR SALE: 1 machined and fitted 455 F block featuring an Eagle 4.5" stroke cast crank, 7.1" Eagle H beam connecting rods, and 4.155" Mahle 22cc dish pistons, and has ARP main studs and rod bolts. It was built 2/2022 by C.L. Engine Clinic in Ontario, Canada. It does NOT include any tinwork, timing gears, cylinder heads, cam shaft, lifters, pushrods, or oil pump. This is a rotating assembly fitted to a block. It DOES include a Scat damper and Allstar engine cradle with casters. This is located in central Maryland (mid Atlantic) and requires local pickup only, unless the buyer arranges shipping and pickup. I am asking $6000USD. email fleming442<at>gmail or four one oh-two 7 one- oh ate six 1

I bought this off a certain semi-famous guy from the Yukon that smuggled it across the border for me. I was going to keep it as a spare engine, but things have taken a turn in a different direction. I simply don't need it anymore.

No, I bought this just like it is. I've never run it. I've also never had a lifter failure. I've dropped a valve twice, but that engine is still in the car (just did a 1200 mile trip).
