Well im about to jump on the ls swap band wagon maybe.Ive been wanting to build a old school 383 roller cam motor with about 500hp at the crank.It was gonna cost me $4,500 in parts alone.Well I ran across a guy with a brand new ls3 with a 580/590 lift cam(cant remember the brand),gmpp carb intake,oil pan to fit older sbc chevy cars,mounts for older gm cars,and a msd igntion control box,flex plate for a th350 and a f-body balancer.Hes asking $4,000 for it.You guys think its a good deal?Engine has never been in a car.....what all would I need to put this in my nova besides headers and and a fuel system?Its a 78 model nova.Anything that will work on a ls swap into a 2nd gen camaro will work on my car.

Actually all joking aside an LS3 crate motor is a few thousand more than that straight from GM. Throw in the other stuff and that price would make me question why he is giving it away at such a loss. Should be pretty easy to tell if the motor was never run.
