Wrong section, actually wrong forum. You might have better luck on fullthrottlev6, considering that is V6 based, and this is around the LS motors.

thats too bad. you can get an LQ motor for under a grand if you search hard enough. but then you'd have to add in all the extra expenses of doing the swap. it looks like a remanned 3.8 is going to cost you between 1200-2000. most of those seemed to have a 3 year warranty. a plain old used motor can be found from 400-1000. i just found a ton on ebay. also on car-part.com thats a good place to check. you can search by distanceand find one close so youdont have to have it shipped.

Yeah 1500-2500 for remanned , most offer 3/100000 warrant there one that has a 4/1million warrant .. I'll look in to car-part .. On a used motor I really don't trust I be taking a 50/50 chance of problems etc. Along with a remanned ,but I'll have a warrant on parts and labor etc..
