List it here as an STS turbo setup. It depends how old and what condition it is in but I have seen kits selling for anywhere between $1200 and $2500 so it's a pretty big swing.

As far as engine, it depends what you are looking to put back in. A real LS1 or any LS based engine? Cheapest way would be a pre-05 5.3 and swap over the parts from the LS1.
