    Selling a 1971 GS 350 4BBL engine complete minus starter, alternator and power steering. It has the pulleys on it and includes the distrib. It was a pretty decent running engine when pulled two years ago. It was pulled to install a built up 455 engine. It was wrapped in plastic and stored on the 2nd level of a heated commercial building. I will take $300 for the engine with the stock quadrajet carb or $250 without it(price reduced to $200 without carb, $250 with carb). Not sure if I am willing at the present time to ship it. It is mounted to a wooden pallet. Pics on request and email address.

    Lee,

    The engine was from a 1971 GS and the mileage is suppose to be about 90,000. I don't know if it was ever rebuilt.

    Carl, Put me in line! I am about 90 minutes from you & the motor. Is it locked up or does it "turn"? Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.

    The motor was not locked up when stored two years ago. It probably should be primed before turning.

    Carl how long is the drive to St Louis? I am trying to decide if I want to go BBB in the sportwagon or just stay SBB. Have you ever pulled the pan? Good oil pressure? I have a rebuilder but might be interested in a drop in long block.

    John,

    All I know is that the engine seemed to be a good running engine with no outstanding noises. I have not taken off the pan. I think $200 for a complete engine without the carb is a pretty good deal. The drive is about 8 1/2 hrs to Novi, Mi.

    If you end up just wanting to get rid of it for the cost of shipping, put me first in line. I would love to have it, but right now I just dont have much extra money. Good luck in your sale.
