When I was going to the School of Automotive Machinists, I started working on a plan for an engine for my 96 Impala SS. The original plan was to build an LT1 stroker with 18* top end and hydraulic roller valvetrain. Parts were bought over time that would specifically work with the small 4” bore. However, I haven't done anything with it for a long, long time, and I just got a divorce. Not having her income every month hasn’t been easy, and to make things worse, dating isn’t inexpensive. So, now I need to get rid of this stuff.

All prices are negotiable plus shipping.

$2000 for all 18* Stuff including pistons.
$1750 for all 18* Top-End Stuff.
$850 GM 18* heads. As cast ports and chambers. No valveguides or seats installed ever.
$300 Jesel 1.7i/1.8e shaft rockers, offset for these heads, but no stands.
$250 Titanium 2.080/1.625 valves, with longer stems also for these heads.
$350 Bottom half of sheetmetal intake for 18* heads. Has bungs for nitrous or alcohol injectors installed in the runners. Needs the top fabricated. Would also need bungs added for EFI Injectors.
$50 Titanium Valvespring Retainers


$350 Wiseco forged pistons for 18* heads. These were custom ordered back in 1995 for the NASCAR SuperTruck series. According to Brian Nutter at Wiseco, “The pistons will handle about any power you want to put to them N/A and would be good for a 250 to 300 shot of nitrous if properly tuned, but I'd say the limitation of the pins is at 700hp or so.. I'd go tool steel past that.”
4.028” bore. 1.125" compression height, -14cc reverse dome. 1/16, 1/16, 3mm rings. 0.92 pin diameter (Rings, locks, & pins not included). Never been run.

$150 CompCams 875-16 Roller Lifters

$180 Ferrea 5000 Series Stainless Steel Valves
9 of each with 1 of each out of the wrapper for airflow bench testing, but still in perfect condition
F5022 = 2.055” diameter x 11/32 stem x 5.010 length

I will be adding pictures soon.
And more parts to be added later.

 

Here is a picture of what the tops of the pistons look like:

Cheston,

Booooooo, finish this beast! I met you a long time ago when you were living in Houston, dating sucks man, believe me I know. A stroker 18* LTX is win.

 

I think I remember you. Didn't I buy a camshaft from you or something?

Anyway, I'm adding some more parts and pictures.
