Normally the salvage yard by my house won't let you take any engine wiring, which is understandable as they want to sell the motors with it. Though now because of cash for clunkers they let me chop out some injector connectors! Yanked them out of a Olds Aurora, which should work out pretty well I think. I had forgot those things have v8's!

My buddy works as a service writer cried when they clunker-ed a 2500HD with a LQ4/4l80. He said they sell them for $200 dollars to a local salvage yard after they seize the motor up.

Then they can sell everything else ad make money on it!

Your buddy at the dealer needs to call some j-yards in bigger towns for more $ on those 3/4 ton LQ4 trucks.

By the way I paid $20 for them.

The "gov" set the amount the yard paid the dealer. Also the yard had to be on the approved list.

originally govt said dealers could only profit $50.00 and the rest went to the customers whos car it was. then they unlimited it to the dealers. we were getting $450.00 a car at a yard in cali.
