93 Cadillac Allante Northstar 295 HP Engine - $95 (Longmont, Co.)Date: 2008-05-15, 9:17AM MDT


This is a 46,000 mile Northstar engine that was removed from my 93 Cadillac Allante because of a bad #7 Crankshaft bearing journal. This engine was not used after the noise from the bearing was detected, thus all other internal parts are in great shape. It was replaced by a new engine, then partially disassembled and all parts put in 4 plastic crates for storage. It was my intention to purchase an aftermarket Crankshaft, new bearings and gaskets, and then rebuild this engine for future use. I have since that time sold the car, and no longer have a use for this engine. Local pickup only! Please call 303-709-6490

Well, it is my engine now - next winters project - I think turbocharging it will be the way to go.

Great engine - perfectly stored - cylinders as smooth as glass - pistons perfect (except #7 bearing) - timing gears and chains pristine - crankshaft has to go - because of failed bearing - plugs, wires, water pump, everything is there except the starter and engine covers - and I won't need the covers if I turbocharge it.

And for far less than a Ben Franklin...

Woo Hoo - now the hot rod project can really begin...

even I could lift the block


heads look great and so do the holes in the block - shouldn't have to timesert it...



pistons well protected - and very smooth and clean


timing gears and chains look great


bad, bad crankshaft...



bad bearing


miscellaneous parts and covers


engine in plastic tubs...
