Thanks, I'll keep them in mind depending upon what we find...

Never heard of these guys but might check them out with some research . https://epmmachineco.com/product/chevy-383hp-stroker-engine-short-block/

Yeah, they replied to my inquiry, that's the only TBI engine they offer, for $4800 I'll pass.

If I was spending your money, I would get their 383 shortblock. I can send over a power of attorney if you are interested. LOL.

Powertrain Products sells a L31 for $3,000 including the $500 core charge. L05 is ~$500 less.

Bogus. I like that ZZx that @L31MaxExpress shared with us. Too bad it’s been put of stock for so long. I liked that one.

Its out of stock, but I believe that GM does not build them until after they are ordered.

Same thing happened a year or so ago when a guy on TGO ordered a HT/ZZ383 short block.

The guy told me they're NLA. Who knows maybe they'll see some down the road but, he didn't mention I could order one.

I filled out their form, we'll see. Do you have any experience with them?

No personal dealings but I know a few people that have had decent experience with them over the years.

I got a quote for a complete L05, it was ~$2599. I sent them an email asking for a roller cam short block with flat top pistons. They replied they only do OE spec engines and no flat top pistons. Oh well, it was worth a try, thanks for the suggestion.

L05 Caprice and L98 TPI was a factory spec engine with flat tops. Oh well.
