Hey mark hows it going?
Is that a complete crate engine price? What about a bare shortblock?

does your dealer even have C6 vettes? Ours does.....maybe out this way we get things before your city does. I looked up the manifold the other day and it gave me a price and would allow me to speical order it if i wanted.

ok...I checked into it more, the LS2 engines and the intake manifolds have part #'s but the main warehouse has 0 in stock. it will let me order it in the computer, but it would be just like a back order untill they are available in the main distribution center. So I guess it's not possible to order one from a dealer and have it anytime soon. maybe I'll just have to unbolt one off a new C6 sitting out in the lot w/out anyone seeing. lol.

yeah, give it time....i'm sure that right now they're more worried about having the engines available for the new cars coming out and meeting production & sales goals than selling the engines only

the things just came out, it will take a little while
