Default Best search terms for ebay/craigslist/RJ etc...

Hi Folks-
I'm going to start cobbling together parts for a 5.3 or 6.0 swap soon. What are the most effective search terms to use on ebay/etc. when looking for engines and transmissions? Thanks!

What application are you planning on swaping your engine into?

This place is just on the other side of Philly.

They only advertise a fraction of their inventory on ebay. If you call them directly they can get you a deal. They have a very positive reputation.

Yep I've done business with Fparts before, great guys! I would be swapping into either a 1987 G-body or a 1970 A-body.

LS1, LSx, LQ4, LQ9, Sierra 2500, Silverado HD, Denali, Escalade,

It has been said that the same motor can be found cheaper if it is labeled from certain vehicles, eg. Econovan 2500 (LQ4)
