Parting Out Forged 427 LS1/LS7, MANY Parts! I decided to part out my 427 instead of selling it all as one piece. Please PM with questions.
Complete LS7 Top End:
-GM LS7 heads, untouched from the factory
-GM LS7 manifold, intake runners have been smoothed out
-GM LS7 fuel rail, a must if you are using an LS7 manifold
-Katech fuel rail spacer kit, so you can use LS1/LS6 injectors
-GM LS7 rocker arms, also untouched, 1.8:1 ratio
-GM LS7 rocker arm bolts, shorter than those in an LS1/6
-GM LS7 titanium intake valves
-GM LS7 sodium filled exhaust valves
-GM LS7 intake valve lash caps
-PRC dual valve spring kit, good to .660" lift
-GMPP blue viton valve stem seals
-Comp Cams custom length pushrods, for use with LS7 heads on LS1/LS6 block
1667 miles on above. New, all of these things total nearly $4000, I'm looking for $3000 shipped FIRM
Comp Cams OE Replacement Lifters:
1667 miles on them. No abnormal wear, ran with .060" pre-load so they still have tons of life left. $140 shipped.
Rollmaster Double-Roller Timing Set:
About 6k miles on it. Great set-up for cammed cars. This is the heat-treated version, adjustable, and comes with the torrington bearing. Also comes with spacers and longer bolts for the oil pump. $65 shipped.
TSP Ported LS6 Oil Pump:
Also has about 6k miles on it. Gave my stock LS1 and the 427 awesome oil pressure. 55psi at idle, 65psi at cruise, 75-80psi at redline. Lots of life left in this oil pump. I belive it's also been shimmed, but I haven't checked. SOLD.
ARP Hex Head Stud Kit:
1667 miles on them. Used only once. SOLD.
Comp Cams Custom: 230/248, .626"/.632"(1.8 Rockers), 112+2 LSA:
Used this cam in my 427 LS1 with LS7 heads. It was an AWESOME cam. Although the engine was never tuned to its full potential, this cam is a lot of fun. It is designed to provide awesome midrange power to generate power "under the curve." It idles nicely at 650rpm with some mean sounding lope. It also has great street manners. Only has 1667 miles on it. Paid $430 for it, looking to get $250 shipped.
Two Delphi 85mm MAF Sensors:
I was going to use one on my 427, but never got around to installing it. I accidentally got two. One is brand spankin' new from GM. It is completely unaltered, but it has a crack in the plastic outlet housing, but it appears to still be structurally sound, as in you can tighten a hose clamp around it and it won't break. The other one was used in a LS6 Z06. It is de-screened and the aluminum inlet side has been shortened in a mill 1/4" for more clearance. These MAF sensors have an integrated IAT sensor, meaning you need an adapter to put them into an LS1 F-body. I have one adapter, Caspers part# 108100. SOLD.
AC Delco Camshaft Position Sensor:
Has about 55k miles on it. I bought a new one because I thought it was causing a problem, but it wasn't. $25 shipped.
B&M Ripper Shifter:
This is a great shifter, huge improvement over stock. Has about 20k miles on it and still works great! No signs of wear whatsoever. Comes with the adjustment plates, bolts, and a shift ****. $95 shipped.
Holley 90mm TB:
Has 1667 miles on it also. Has a small scratch on the top, other than that it looks amazing. Works very well, also comes with a throttle cable bracket. $360 shipped.
Mototron 60lb Injectors:
They have about 4500 miles on them. They are flowmatched. They are very common in the FI and big motor world. SOLD.
LS6 Valley Cover:
Also have 1667 miles on it. In perfect shape. Comes with the valley cover gasket and bolts. SOLD.
427 LS1 Shortblock!!!
Before you read on, this engine has an oil consumption issue. As of now, it goes through about 1 quart every 350 miles, depending on the driving. It will need to be rebuilt! I'm 99% sure the rings were washed down when the reluctor wheel was installed incorrectly by the "professional shop". So, the engine will need new piston rings and a finish hone done on the cylinders so the rings can seat. This would cost only $200-$300 to rebuild it. I'll even include some tools to rebuild it if you plan on doing it yourself. It has 1667 miles on it exactly. The tops of the pistons are still quite clean, so the rebuild will be painless. Also, none of the sleeves have dropped, which is a concern many have with sleeved blocks. Usually, the sleeves will drop in the first few miles or heat cycles. This engine has been through 90+ heat cycles and 1667 miles, no problem. Katech rigorously inspects and tests their blocks before they are shipped out. The block includes the galley plugs already installed. I will get pics ASAP!
- Katech Resleeved LS1 Block, 4.125" Finished Bore, Seasoned, Vacuum Impregnated, Clearenced
- Eagle 4340 Forged/Heat Treated 4.00" Stroke Crankshaft
- Lunati Pro-Mod Forged 4340 Connecting Rods, 6.125"
- Lunati/ARP 7/16" Connecting Rod Bolts
- Diamond Custom Forged Aluminum Pistons, -10cc Dish w/ Valve Reliefs
- Diamond Pro-Select Piston Rings: 1.5mm, 1.5mm, 3.0mm
- Clevite 77 H-Series Race Main Bearings, STD. & .001 Under Mixed
- Clevite 77 H-Series Race Rod Bearings, .001 Under
- Katech Billet Main Caps, Doweled
- ARP Main Studs
- Rotating Assembly completely balanced and blueprinted
Cost me over $7500 to build the shortblock, I am looking to get $5100 + shipping for it. I am still not entirely sure I want to ship it, but if there is a buyer ready I probably will. Prefer local sale obviously.
Here are some pics of it being assembled:
