I have a complete disassembled LD28 that ran great when I took it apart 10 years ago. I assume people only care about the crankshaft but I'm not sure what the interest is these days. Anyone looking?

I wouldn’t mind a cylinder head and intake thrown in with it, but generally yes just the crankshaft is what everyone goes for. How much were you asking for it?

I think a LD28 equipped Z would be fun. Seen a few on youtube.

My plan was a holset and a 5.9 Cummins pump. I would take $2k for the complete engine. Asking $1200 for the crankshaft.

The block is not what is getting used for the 3.5L builds that Rebello is doing.  It's worth some money.

You mean it IS being used?

How is he building a 3.5 engine? What are the components? Bore and stroke?

Not sure if it’s the same but here’s one that’s 3.4

A quick look through the article and I didn't see a reference to an LD28 block

A lot of people prefer the taller block so that they can offset grind the crank and still have a reasonable rod ratio. There are several better places to have such a conversation were it necessary, but the info is easily searchable on this forum or others. I posted this to gauge interest and get pricing feedback and would greatly appreciate any reply along those lines. Thank you!

Actually I believe the discussion is germane to the value of your parts. If the previous poster is correct that the LD block is the basis of a 3.5L motor, than your parts are worth more than simply using the taller block. Rod ratio doesn't effect displacement, which was my line of question. I am also pretty familiar with the forum and what info has been posted here and the ability to find that information or not. Just trying to help you determine the value of your parts, as I own 2 of these engines already. So I have a vested interest in helping you get the best price.

I never said rod ratio effected displacement. Just that a taller block allows a better rod ratio with a given stroke. This is what I was trying to avoid. Just looking to gauge interest in selling an engine.
