Cool I think I just found a LS1...

I was riding my bike thru the woods and came across a motor. Stopped to take a look and it was an aluminum block with 5.7 stamped on the back of it. No heads but still had the rotating assembly and oil pan. 1 snapped rod though and a pretty big hole in the block, but if anyone needs any parts I'll sell em dirt cheap.

I'll post pictures soon on http://www.webrats.com

well, cam and lifters look good, timing chain and gears good, oil pan's bad. crank and 7 of the rods might be ok. couple of sensors might be good... balancer, water pump, etc.
all the internals were actually still coated with oil, so im thinking it wasnt sitting for too long.

YOU, my friend, will be my FIRST victim. I'm going to take great pleasure in making your car look like a Civic.

Your youth weighs heavily on your ability to think rationally. I'll show you the way. You will think clearly, soon. You will know the truth, soon. Soon, your *** will be handed to you by an old fart. THAT is a guarantee.

You beat me once in two races. Congrats. You won't ever do it again. Keep that in mind. Next time we'll make an event out of it if you wish. We'll invite the whole F-body club to the track and you and I will line up. I'm ready to set a date, are YOU? February 28, 2003 at Alamo Dragway sound good? I'm calling you out little man. You can't play superhero in your Spiderman Underoos forever. This is the real deal. Let's put the smack talkin' to the side and back it up with timeslips. Do you ACCEPT or DECLINE this invitation to an *** whipping?

P.S. You will get

Then you will have to to Slo-ride.
