I live about 15 miles from there but am up around the Wylie area a couple of times / month for work.
You need me to look at a Mustang for you? :P

Hey Micheal,
I'm lookin at an LS1 on ebay down there. Its local pick up only.
So I was wondering if any of my Texican Brothers would pick it up if I decide its worth all the misery??

That might be a pretty good deal.

I don;t see the alignment boss in the forward right side of the valley. This could be an LS6 block.

Would need to see the main webs to be sure.

It's a 97/98 block. I can pick it up if you need me to and bring it to Alamo to ship, my trailer is stored in Wylie.

I'm guessing your pre-July 4th drop in didn't work out?

Ahhhh...that Pre-July 4th drop in DID work out.

This is for that poor bastard's Post-July 4th drop in.

Another LS motor let go.

Losing multiple motors in a year is not a fun experience...

Dealing with my pile of pieces that was once a motor isn't very fun at the moment either.

Funny that the used headlight is more expensive than the used door I got.

Thanks Fella's,

So is anyone here taking a chance on this motor? Raybob I am close to Wylie, too. If you aren't buying I may take a chance and pick it up. Should have gone to look at it, but wish they pistons were out of it. If there is one bad piston chances are good that others are bad. If that cylinder with the missing piston is messed up it can be resleeved. My motor was resleeved a few years ago with no problems.

Let me know so I don't bid against someone.

Robert Scranton wants to sell me the low miles original LS1 that came with his 02 SS Camaro.
He is making me a stellar deal so that I'll have a Engine for maybe the Nationlas ????
I recon I should pop the pan off and put ARP rod bolts in it and then baby it or ??
Thanks for your help Dudes,,
