Default Found a LS1

I am posting this for a friend, he found a 2002 LS1 engine online. It came out a 2002 SS. It has almost 10,000 miles on it, it comes complete with T-56, wiring, computer and all accessories. It is on sale for $2,500.00. Not sure what happen to the car. I have seen some LS1's on e-bay for above 4 G's, so do you guy's think this is a good buy.
Please let me know
TIA,
Warren

Yeh, if the engine is in good condition it is a steal.

Unfortunately, you can;t determine the condition without doing a few tests, namely a compression test of each bore...

My LS1/A4 combo cost 5G's. It is a salvage yard motor w/32k on it, and came with all accessories & PCM.
There were some issues with it, but I was happy with the deal.
If yours is in good shape, and the mileage is REALLY 10k, it looks like you've got yourself a good deal!

LOL, yeah thats why I didn't say where it was so no one else would find it . They said it was ran and tested befor taken out of the car, thats all that they said. Still don't know what was wrong with the car.
Thanks for the reply's,
