That's who I bought my motor from. Seems like they've gone up a bit in price.

 

I like the part about its a destroke and debored LS1

 

I agree, is demand up?? they were going for $3k at the start of the summer

 

I think I paid $2100 for my motor. I emailed them 2 days ago for a 4L80E and they told me I could have one for $1000. That thing does have a bunch of other stuff with it, but so did mine. After I sold off the 5.3 accessories, and then traded what was left of the 5.3 (longblock) for a go-kart and sold it, I think I recouped back almost $900 or more.

 

That place is right by where I live. They get all the car and trucks from gm that get recked (falling off rail road cars an such) there is a reason we call them scams here they charge the most money for any parts in michigan.Ok to work with though

 

The best part is that that place has bullshit best offers, won't budge on the price, I tried dealing with them a few months b4 i finially got one from another place way cheaper..

 

this is good info, I have been wanting to go and get one, but I was hoping to get some cash walks type of deal. where did you get yours?? did they ship? I hope that if I get there with $cash that I can get a deal.
