06 E55 Loaded Short Block

Is anyone looking for an 06 E55 loaded short block? I bought one in plans of putting pistons in it but have decided to go another route for my car. I can make it a long block with fresh gaskets/seals if the buyer wants with heads and ARP head studs. Or can sell it as is. If you blew your motor and want to just put a clean replacement block in here's your chance

Depends on what configuration the buyer wants. The cheapest would be a stock loaded short block for $2500

Depends on what you want. Stock long block? Now would be the perfect time to at least throw in ARP head bolts and rod bolts if nothing else. It's stock right now. I sent you pm.

Doh! 2 weeks ago I thought I was putting this in my car. Timing sucks. I remember when I was looking for a loaded short block, couldn't find one at all! Had to buy complete engine

How "seasoned" in the block? Has it been decked, hot tanked, or any other checks been performed?

86k miles. All I did was disassemble the motor down to the loaded short block to check for damage. It is still loaded. Anything can be done but at an additional cost. What you're asking would involve disassembly of the internals and then reassembly. New bearings, bolts etc.
