If you are getting motors for that cheap, you are buying them from a chop shop!
Besides, the motors I am speaking of are direct take outs with less than 10 miles on them and come complete with all accessories (alt, a/c, p/s, etc...) full wiring harness and PCM. They are available without all that as well for a little cheaper but the LQ9s are sold fully dressed only...

Guys, don't waste your time, this is no deal, what gets forwarded to you is a link to the same National database that http://car-part.com uses.

Fyi, He just happens to be a member of car-part.com like ever other part yard out there and links to that search engine on his web page... The way I understand it is they receive a portion of all vehicles that are damaged in any way in transit to the dealership (train derailments to transport accidents, etc...). I have seen a row of vettes over there with not much more than dings on the hood. However, if that vehicle were to be purchased after being repaired GM would be setting themselves up for a huge lawsuit therefore they ship the entire vehicle to him and he dismantles it and parts the good stuff out... Dont get me wrong, he is not GIVING these things away, but you will be hard pressed to find a brand new motor like this with full warranty for the money. If a simple phone call is a "waste of time" then you are way to busy to be on this message forum.
