It seems like my newly built and installed 6.0 is going to hold up so the 5.3 is up for sale. I have it listed on CL here in Austin. I don't wan't to ship it but I thought I'd go ahead and post it up here. If someone in the Houston or Texas City area wants it, let me know because I travel to the area for work and I may be able to work out delivery.

It comes as a longblock. Heads have not been removed. Oil pan, valley cover and front and rear covers are included. It was running strong when I pulled it.

 

Bump for new price and pics! For $500 I'll throw in some never used blue ls3 valve springs (same as yellow ls6s). I can even install them if you want.

 

If I only had $600 for you to ship it to me...

 

Damn. I'd come as far as Port Arthur, Tx to meet you

 

Is that everything you have for it?

 

Yeah, pretty much. I used most of the other stuff on my swap. What else do you need? I'll be parting out a gen IV 5.3 pretty soon.

 

what would it cost to have this shipped to zip 32068??

 

Man, I don't even know how to go about shipping a motor.I'll see what I can find out. Anybody have any suggestions?

 

Go see if you can get an engine crate from a salvage yard and buy some cheap ratchet strapps to strap the motor to it. I would think that would be about the chapest/easiest/safest. If you were closer I would think about picking this up for my dads truck to replace his tired 4.8

 

Some interest but no real offers. I may do a NNBS intake on my truck soon. If that happens then I'll have the stock intake to go with this.
