built 355 and 2.5" drop spindals FS - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Porkchop · 02-12-2005, 10:39 PM

Small Block Chevy 355

-2 bolt main block bored .030" over
-new freeze plugs and cam bearings
-turned cast iron crank
-new rods
-new dished pistons
-new bearings, rings, and gaskets
*the entire rotating assembly was balanced
-new vortec heads
-Crane 1.5 ratio self aligning roller tip rockers
-.420" .443" lift Comp Cam with hydrolic lifters and
pushrods
-ceramic coated flotech headers (made for a 67-72
chevy truck but they may fit other applications???)
-Edelbrock performer rpm airgap aluminum intake
manifold
-Edelbrock 750 cfm manual choke carb
-Pro-billet MSD distributer and MSD wires
-New spark plugs
-new timing gears and chain
-new high volume water pump
-new oil pan and oil pump
-chrome accessories (water neck, valve covers,
aircleaner, dipstick etc.)
-some pulleys and brackets (they have all been painted with high temp paint.
-flexplate (for auto tranny) flywheel and clutch
-2 starters

This engine has never been run but has remained
covered and oiled, and it's been rotated periodically.
This engine has a compression ratio somewhere in the
vicinity of 9.5 to 1. I chose the somewhat small camshaft lift,although larger than stock, because I was going to put it in my truck. You could easily swap in another cam if you wanted to run at higher rpms.
I really need all of the money I can get out of this, so I am asking $2800(this is less than what it is worth in parts), or I would be willing to accept trades for something (doesn’t have to be car related)

Also, I have some never used western chassis 2.5" drop spindals- $200 or trade?????
thanks

What are you looking to trade for the spindles? Send me a PM if there's a list. Thanks...corn

Porkchop · 02-13-2005, 12:07 PM

I am not looking for anything in particular. If you have something lying around that you don't want (whether it be car related or not) just ask me if I am interested in trading for it. I am selling my 69 chevy so I don't really need anything related to that. I "may" also do partial trades (something + money going either way).
I do, however, have a 69 ford 1/2 ton FE big block- I can always use some parts for it if you have any.

Brad, you have a couple PMs. Thanks...corn

67chev · 02-14-2005, 11:09 PM

what years will the drop spindals fit?? If 67-72, I may be interested. Thanks

Porkchop · 02-17-2005, 08:59 PM

According to the suspension board they will also fit 63-72 if you change out the ball joint and tie rod ends.

67chev · 02-18-2005, 02:40 AM

That is awesome that they would fit. I tell you what...I am no longer in need of the spindles, but you may want to PM GenIIIShorty (friend of mine)...he is looking to drop his truck...for the right price, he would probably take them off your hands. Good luck selling! Sending you a PM....
