Default Best prices on LS3 crate engines?

Where would you buy an LS3 crate engine at the lowest price?

Any vendors that you would recommend?

Anyone who knows the correct part number in use for the LS3 crate?

When searching I find 3-4 different part numbers.

Because there will be different oil pans and exhaust manifolds on different versions, for the car each type of LS3 engine is intended to go into.

Remember that you will need a 58x-24X reluctor wheel conversion module for a LS3. If you buy a built motor, you will have a choice (24x or 58x reluctor wheel).
