Default Where yo get lsx motors and trans from for swap?

Intrest is building with doing a conversion in my Z71 in the future, and would like to check out some leads for engine/trans combos. Where did you guys get your powerplants from? Any suggestions on places to look? I have done some looking locally, and have come up short. I am not looking to do the conversion quite yet, just gathering info. Thanks in advance for all help.

EBay

I do peroidical searches (broader the better) for things I need. If you're patient and thorough you'll find great deals. I picked up my 04' GTO LS1 w 6 speed for $2000, and it only has 20,000 miles.

I've had problems with the data in my area not being up to date for the engines. I'd call them and they wouldn't have what was posted on the website. I ended up picking one up off ebay. Should be here sometime this week (fingers crossed).

Got our on Ebay form a recylcler in SC. Performance Auto is the company, and we are very happy! Look in your local area first though, you may find a steal...
