Default LSX engines in the Baltimore Area

Hey whats going on, Ive been a member of this site for a few months now and this is my first post. Was wondering if anyone knows of junkyards around baltimore that have 5.3 or 6.0 complete engines at a reasonable price. Been searching crazy rays with no success. Ready to jump into the LS engines from my currect Gen 1 383. Depending on prices I would like to go LS, if not will probably just supercharge the 383. thanks for any info

Try Brandywine here in MD. If not search on www.car-part.com. They are a junkyard site that lets you search multiple yards for parts. And then just worry about shipping.

Thanks for the replies and PMs. I should have clarified, Im actually looking for a complete engine swap. I currently have zero LS parts and would like to have a complete setup (engine, wiring, ecm, etc etc) so I can go EFI as easily as possible.

GrannySShifting, I have actually come across a couple 4.8s in crazy rays however if you could share you sources that would be awesome.

Just trying to do this on a budget. Thanks again everyone!

Not true!! I want one for my IROC. That with a 5spd, and 2.73 gears make a semi gas friendly DD.
