Complete BBC 454 bored .030 over short block

4 bolt main, cast crank, TRW Forged pistons (13.8cc dome), Seal Power Rings, TRW rod bearings, TRW main bearings, TRW cam bearings.

Block casting# 3999289:
3999289....454.......71-79...2 or 4 bolt, some "CE" replacement blocks had four bolt main caps

Was running when when pulled from the truck. Freeze plugs have been removed. Needs a thrust wear plate (link (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CLO-9-203/)) for behind the timing chain cam sproket. I'm told it's fairly common on BBCs and an easy fix.

Selling because I'm building a new motor. I have the build sheet for the motor and will include with the sale. $500. Located in San Antonio.

Bump. Talked to some guys that know more about what these are worth than I do. Dropping the price to $400.

According to the build sheet I have, 1991. Mind you this is in a 1972 Blazer. Purely a pleasure vehicle and by no means a daily driver.

Bump. Short block has less than 10K miles on it.
