    Default f.s: 355 stroker

    i built this 355 for a friend who has now decided to pull the pin on his VK calais project, so the motor is for sale.

    engine short is race prept, zero deck, line & tunnel bored, harrop 355 crank, A9L rods with ARP bolts, ACL race series 17cc dish pistons, bottom end fully ballaced, runs a true 10.5-1 compression. hi volume oil pump, JP double row timming gear (+2deg), oil restrictors were needed, baffled oil pan, heads ported with esky chrome moly springs & retainers and collets & shims, roller rockers & moly push rods, 304 crane cam shaft with a 525 lift (hyd) dialed in, recurved ICE ignition dizzy, runs a harrop single plane intake manifold followed with a 1000CFM MSD billet thottle body & runs a wolf 3D ecu.. also has billet rocker covers..

    this is a basic discription to the engines combo and no expence spared on this engine..

    i ran it on the engine dyno with another combo (286 cam) and it made 400hp with 420ft pounds of torque with a basic tune to the wolf 3D, but it maxed out the cam shaft, so i pulled it down and went for the biggest hyd combo i could get.. this motor will make 450-500hp with this combo and the proper tune to the wolf 3D, but if you change the cam shaft to a mechanical it will make 500+.. its never been started with the 304 engine combo, so the motors about 2hrs old with the 286 combo..

    engine cost me $12,500 to build

    his asking price is $8000

    dont ask for Receipts as i dont have them because i built this engine in a mates workshop and i used his account to get all work carried out and parts orderd.. so for tax reasons, all receipts are amonst his paper work..

    geez, it seems like it has all the right gear! can i see some receipts?

    nah, juts kidding...

    dont suppose you have a few photos? dads looking at a torana as a project which has no motor and box so i am trying to talk him into putting an 8 into it. he is set on a 6 though, but i reckon i can change his mind.

    is your mate open to price negotiations?
