$4199.95 plus shipping.

Pretty cool if you ask me. They are Corvette long blocks judging by the headers, so that means they are 4-bolt mains. Its like finding an Antique in the attic.

For that much money they can keep them. I'd go $3250 max.
I remember somebody finding 20 or so LT5 motors tucked away, that was cool but they wanted around $12,000 each for them or something like that.

someone pulled a "noah's ark" and kept 33 of them just in case the world ends. starting the new world with the LT1 ruling the new streets was their plan

Its possible, because I know they were selling 4-bolt main blocks not long ago for a decent price.

33? wow. That's a lot to find laying around. 4200 is a bit steep though. That reminds me of the guy a few years back that found a garage full of old muscle car crate motors and put em all up on ebay. I think it was a garage full of Ford 427FEs, Chevy 427s, and I think a few Mopars. Does anybody remember that? It was like over a million in factory crate motors that were left abandoned in a garage after some distributor went out of business in the early 70's and all the crate motors were left in some garage.
