Re: LS1 Engine: Build a modified, or buy stock, then modify? Try valvegod@aol.com for the cheapest price in stock never-run engines. From GM you are looking at something over $5000 for a stock motor.

LS1 Engine: Build a modified, or buy stock, then modify? I'm am going to be replacing my engine here and I do not know if I should
1)Buy a stock LS1 engine and modify it.
2)Build an LS1 engine from scratch and modify it while building it.
3)Buy a whole modified engine.
Which one?
Also where can I get a complete LS1 engine that is new and stock? Price?

Re: LS1 Engine: Build a modified, or buy stock, then modify? Have you looked at ARE's crate engine packages? I would suggest starting there...
