Default new dragboat blowthru ls project, need some help finding a ls in arkansas area

have a good friend in central ark that's needing a ls pullout to begin his turbo blowthru ls dragboat project with and he keeps telling me he cant find even a decent 5.3 for under 700 we're needing a salvage yard or recycler in ark he can go to for a 58x 5.3 or 6.0 to begin with. appreciate any help fellas, dont know many guys in the ark area that are into ls's.

Try American Auto Salvage in Ft Worth. I got a 50K '05 5.3 for $450 last year.

If not, try car-part "dot com", it searches junkyards pretty much everywhere.
