Engine price.. I am posting this for a price idea, in the soon future I might be taking out the Engine I just built for a different one. Someone might be looking for a strong running Engine, so I figured that I might be able to hook them up for the right price if I decide to do my swap.
Everything LT1 is going to go with it, pretty much from the MAF Sensor all the way to the Headers, including the Harness and PCM. This will be a complete running Engine when I decide to do this. It is my daily driver now, so I don't really know how many miles will be on it, it won't be too many. I do drive a second car, so this one is about half of what I do.
This Engine was hand built by myself, it currently has 2500 miles on it, Oil gets changed right now every 1500, but after the 5000 mark, it will be changed every 3000. I used regular Pennzoil 10W-30 for the first 500, then Quaker State 10W-30 Synthetic Blend for now, until the 5000 when it will be full Synthetic. It has no Oil leaks, good gaskets were used for it. It's got a new Water Pump, Heads were inspected and milled before the re-build, OPTI is from 2001, Intake and Throttle Body is original. This is a spec list of the Engine components. Everything is built within torque specs, Oil Pump Pickup welded on, pretty much everything built the way it should.

I know we all run against LS1's..but the way I figure, if you are going to beat them, do it big with their own stuff..
Thats cool. It will hurt ego's seeing the old body style eating 98+ *** left and right.
