Thread: Where to find an engine...

Like I suggested before, for some really great Cadillac info go to

www.500cid.com

They sell a lot of parts there, but the real value is the bulletin board. Introduce yourself and tell them your are considering a big caddy for your project and ask for advice, just like here. They also have a parts for sale board.

Pat

Ok thanks again Pat. I just wanted to see if they had good aftermarket parts. I will sign up on there and see what info I can get and read a lot of the threads on there already.

ok i will ask him when he gets down there tomorow if he comes somtimes he dont come on sunday but he will be here mondayi know i'll get back to you when i find out how much he wants for it

FMX, if you want a 350 I got one torn apart in my shed, Needs to be rebuilt, I think the heads were the problem as it had no compression but there was hardly no ridge in on the piston walls when I tore it apart. I can send you the block, pistons, rockers push rods, intake, flywheel and cam for it. Won't send the heads as they are junk. be cheaper to buy new ones or already rebuilt.
All you would have to do if find a shipping company and pay shipping for it. I will even throw in the pallet as I have built a few more for other engines.

Oh yea, its a 4bolt main that came out of a 78 GMC truck, a K15 I think

Joker. Any pics of it or anything? I will see about this 472 first then talk to you about it and all. I really wan't a big block but if it all comes down to it then I will go with a 350. How much are you wanting for the 350?

You pay shipping and its yours for free. I need to clean out some space. just remember that you will need to rebuild it and probably bore it out to .030, I will try to get some pics of it one of these days. Not much there as its all torn down right now.

Alright man... If you can, let me know how much shipping will be and I will let you know if I will buy it or not. Sounds like a good deal to me. Got any rear ends you wan't gone too? heh. I need a rear end that will fit under my 48 like a 9in or a Nova rear.

Nope no rears, I am looking for one myself since I decided against using the IRS from my 90 Tbird

hey FMX he said that he would take a coulple hundred for the engine and trans both and they are done together i figure at the most he would want for it would be $400 cause he dont like bb that much but the guy he got it from said that it ran good and it was low milaged

TRUCKGUY. Find out how much he want's for sure and how much shipping is and I will let you know. Also see if he can find out how many miles it has because if there is quite a bit even then I might just go ahead and rebuild it.

ok will do oh and how do i find out how much shipping is???????

lol Not sure... Might have to find a shipping company and see how much they ship for. Making your own pallet is cheaper. I think different companies have cheaper or different prices...
