I'm selling the pistons, rings and rods out of the NOS late model 455 short block I recently disassembled. They're still assembled, and in NOS condition. No damage, wear or corrosion on any of the parts (although I still haven't completely removed all of the original preservative). These are the low compression, standard bore cast pistons, by the way. I'm asking $125 for the complete set. I'm bringing them to the GS Nats next week. Call me on my cell phone (714-928-0873) during the event if you're interested, or respond now to "reserve" them. If they don't sell there, I'll bring them back home and try again. Why pay shipping, though, when you can just pick them up while attending one of the best Buick GS/GN events available?
Can you ship? Not going to BG. Removed 455 out of car today and going to tear down soon and might need or want these parts.
Let's see if I can answer everyone in one shot: GSX1 - These are stock late model cast pistons out of a NOS service replacement short block I purchased from TA Perf quite a while ago. Did Buick even offer forged pistons in their run-of-the-mill 455's? 67 grand sport - I can ship, but I want to give priority to delivering to the Nats. If that doesn't work out, I'll contact you and we can work something out. Shipping could get a little expensive, though. eric6659 - Let's do it. If, for some reason, I can't make it to the Nats, I'll give you first shot at having them shipped. Check your PM's for details. Thanks for coming through, by the way.
Eric & Scott; Now that I know for sure that the GS Nats has been rescheduled, it's time to look into shipping costs. I committed the sale to you, Eric, so you get first shot at having them shipped via UPS ground, insured. If, however, you're unhappy with shipping costs, I'll let them go to Scott (if you're still interested, Scott). By the way, you can be sure I'll pack and protect them very well to prevent damage, no matter how the packages are handled during delivery. So... Both of you, please provide me with your ZIP codes, or better yet, your complete shipping address via PM and I'll head down to my local UPS store to have them weighed and determine shipping costs today or tomorrow after work. Thank you both for your interest.
