I have for sale a spare Series-2 3800 Supercharged (L67) shortblock that I no longer have a need for. I bought this off of forum member BanditBalz as a complete engine awhile ago for my 3800sc project. Due to logistics, I ended up buying another engine and had it installed instead. Since I had had the engine, it has been covered, turned over every 1-2 months along with wiping a coat of oil to the cylinder walls. You can still see the cross-hatching and all of the pistons look consistent with no major carbon buildup.
If the buyer is interested, I also have a swath of other 3800 engine parts including 2 sets of l67 cylinder heads, exhaust manifolds and a lower intake and some other smaller stuff. All that stuff is included in the price and I'm not separating it. For and additional $50, I will include the engine stand as well.
Original receipt:
Pic of the extra parts: ------------------ '04 Mazda RX8 Build Thread '88 GT- 3800 Turbo 11.367@121.03mph (Sold and gone now) GM Tuners

Not really, I'd like to avoid junkyards cause the prices are insane here.. All the yards within 25 miles wanted over 600 for ecotecs when I was shopping around most with unknown mileage. I know different engine- still I'd like to find an engine from someone parting a car out.
I would not suggest this for someone who is looking to start a 3800 swap as there is a bunch of missing pieces. You would have to spend a lot of time hunting down small parts and pieces to make this a complete engine that you would probably end up spending more money than you would just buying a full engine. But that's just my opinion.
But if you have a swapped Fiero already but are looking to build-up another engine on the side, or have a spare shortblock for the 'just in case' moments, this would be a nice piece to work with.
