Default New HKE Built 408 Long Block

This is brand new, all machine work and assembly was done by Erik at HK Enterprises.

it has:

6.0l iron block
4" Stroke Eagle Crank
6.125 Eagle Rods
Wiseco 3cc Relief Pistons
all new ACL Bearings.
Cometic Head Gaskets
Custom Grind Camshaft from HKE
Ls7 Lifters
HKE 3/8 Pushrods
L92 Rocker Arms
PRC L92/LS3 Heads
Roll Master Double Roller Timing Chain


it still needs an oil pump, covers, and an intake.

this engine was predicted by Eric to make right around 575rwhp through a 6spd $ 7000 obo

Guys please check your funding prior to making offers or trying to purchase have had this thing sold 4 times and people said funding wasnt there after the deal was done. Not trying to be a dick im just saying.

That is correct about 85. The good thing is that the iron block take just about anything you can throw at it.

Post up the compression ratio. If low enough, might be a good option for the boosted cars

I agree and can attest to the fact that Eric Koenig of HKE Enterprises/Racing is probably the top one or two n/a LS engine builders in the Country. Someone is going to get a killer set-up here!
