Complete 1970 Chevrolet 454 Ls-4 / Ls-5 - 3963512 Engine And 400 Turbo Trans on 2040-parts.com

1970 LS-4 / LS-5 454 totally complete original Chevrolet engine and totally complete original matching 1970 turbo 400 transmission. This is the factory original engine and transmission that was installed in this particular 1970 Chevrolet Caprice before it was removed from the vehicle and put into storage several years ago. The paperwork and factory stampings on this engine verify that this is the correct factory engine/transmission combination installed in this particular vehicle. The LS-4 and LS-5 are basically identical engines - the only difference between the LS-4 and LS-5 is the cam shaft and chrome accessories. As you can see this motor/transmission is a time capsule unit complete with the factory GM Protect-O-Plate and 1970 Chevrolet Pre-Delivery Service and Adjustment Check Sheet. The water pump has been changed and as you can see the dealership repair order confirms this. Obviously this engine/transmission has not been run for sometime and will need a total and complete overhaul and rebuild but with the skill level, parts availability and technology that exist today this is truly a challenge to be accepted. Imagine if you will, there cannot exist more than a handful of complete 1970 Engine / Transmissions this complete anywhere. In fact the only item to my knowledge missing is the air cleaner wing nut. The casting numbers are as follow:

Block Number:  3963512

Pad Number: T0825CGV

Build Date: H23 9

Carb Number: 7040200EE  2329

Transmission Number: 70B217

Vehicle Serial Number: 166390U113209

I do not know the full history of this unit for I purchased this unit at an estate sale that was in the process of liquidating a number of GM/Chevrolet Parts and Accessories. Certainly any verification of numbers, date codes and quality of the entire assembly up to and including a professional machine shop disassembly is more than welcome and can be finalized before the end of the sale. If I can be of help in any way with regard to additional pictures and/or checking of external numbers please ask. Any internal numbers or removal of parts for visual inspection should be done by trained professionals in the proper setting and environment. Thank you.
