Thanks for all your help guys. Parish shoot me a PM when you find out. I will be watching for it tomorrow. A crate motor is a valid option as well. I've seen people putting 10#'s and 100 shots on stock motors so I guess they can take it, for awhile anyway. It's all about the tune huh? 
Gotta take the kids to the fair. I'll check back tonight.

The extra bore isn't so much for the added hp but for the availability.
even if you found a used one- you dont need to bore it over. if it still has cross hatching- just hone it for good measure

ps: i can get you a brand new LQ4 for $3k.
It will have 10 miles on it. the local scrap yard buys GM's test vehicles and stuff like that. I got my 4L65E with 10 miles on it for $700. They are AWESOME. They have tons of damn-near-new stuff just piled up on pallet racks. There is also a d-max for $5500
Add 2k for the allison.

Oh. I thought you were saying that you see them there often, not that there was actually one there right now. If I can't find anything else within the week I will PM you and get the details. Thanks for letting me know about it. Sorry, I got
