Default Trying to find an engine in Canada

Does anyone know where I can source a LS2 dropout from a GTO in Canada (preferably in Ontario)??

Thanks

Considering the GTO wasn't sold in Canada they are very limited. Why does it have to be from ON? I paid $400 to get mine shipped from the states with ABF freight. Picked it up at their depot in Cambridge to save a few bucks. No brokerage fees just had to call Customs and pay the taxes. Got mine off ebay.

I sold a 1983 GMC c15 to someone in canada. Do you see it around. It is somewhere around you. It is yellow, has a 350 police motor. Grile Covering headlights. Fog lights in bumper. Cowl hood. 20's Chrome wheels. The Bed gate is off of a corvette. So it has the full corvette back ( Tailighs ). Has Corvette exhaust. Woodgrain stearing wheel. Dash is Gray on top of yellow. Truck took me 5 years to build. I sold it for $11000. The best truck ever.

Well... Considering Canada is the second largest country in the world of approximately four million square miles and theres over 33 million population and approx 6 million in the greater Toronto area alone.

all I can say is this...

I havent seen it man sorry.
