I would look at what it would cost to gather the correct parts and build from scratch...then compare that to the asking price. If you buy a never run motor...you still may want to check things out before turning the key [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

***Chevy specs called for aluminum heads initially on these motors...I believe all the over the counter versions had iron heads. This was basically a larger displacement L-88 with a better cam. It had to make way north of 500hp...40 years later and we are still talking about them...good stuff never goes out of style [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] </div></div>

I had one years ago. Iron heads. It was purchased in the 80's and dropped into a Chevy II bracket car. Was running in the 10's.

I always thought it would be neat to build an LS-7 70 Chevelle just to see what it would run. Apparently that's what it was going to be installed in but Chevrolet got cold feet.
