I am looking for a LS2 and found one relatively close by at salvage yard from a TBSS. The truck was however rolled over. I called about it and they said the engine ran great prior to being removed. I wonder though if it might not be such a great idea to buy an engine that was rolled however. Any thoughts on this?

If there is no visable damage, like smashed coil packs or intake broke, you should be fine.

Most times people shut the engine off so oil starve tends to not really happen. Like said, no visual damage, I would feel ok with it.

Mileage is 41k and asking price is $4500 which i think is pretty high. I can get a crate LS6 for that same priced shipped (minus a few hundred bucks also). I was thinking of offering something in the $2.5k range and seeing if they will go for it if i show up with cash in hand to pick it up.

This motor will be going into my 944 Turbo eventually.. i just sold the spare engine i had kept for that and plan to buy an LS2 as the new 'spare'. So even after i buy this motor i would still need to replace the intake manifold, find a wireharness (this one does not include it) and find the f-body accessory drive so everything fits in my car..so the cheaper the better considering all i need is the long block and injectors really. Ideally i would buy an LS2 from a GTO as i can use that accessory drive setup, but those are pretty rare .

Its a bummer because i missed a good deal on an LS2 driving distance from me a few weeks ago in the classifieds.

$4500?? If you could get the whole car for that I would say go for it.

Yea that's pretty high you could probably build
1 for that price.

4500$ Is a little much, they are trying to hit a home run...... I would say a complete drive train maybe for that much....
