Around 1500.00, i factored in some PS LT's And a nelson tune. Around 50.00 for a used flexplate 50-100.00 for engine mounts/ registers. 175.00 to modify harness around 50.00 for the fuel line setup, might be able to get v8 lines from junkyard! He would also want a G-80 for limited slip, It all depends on if he "WANTS TO GO FAST"-Ricky Bobby lol.. I would cam it etc. SO look at a stock conversion price of around 1200.00 and then add his mods to that price.

As for the guy getting the free 4.8.... if its free, id use it to save money but if i was gonna spend money on the swap, id do a 6.0.
its missing a rod and piston and part or the block needs oil pan..

Oh it's not my V6!!! I already have my little toy in my truck! This guy isn't really wanting to go fast, just wantin to put a small cam in it, and maybe some LT's. He just want's to keep up with stock 5.3's. He might trade ya though. I can't tell from the pics, but is there a hole in the block?
