Default Complete 5.3 for sale, Phoenix

I have a complete 5.3 (LM7) for sale sitting in my garage. As of right now I am just looking to sell in Phoenix, not interested in shipping anywhere.

Details:

2001 engine, 118,000 miles, well-maintained, religious 3000 mile oil changes and coolant flushes as recommended by GM (30k miles? Can't remember exactly)
All accessories are from a 2005 truck and have about 10K miles on them. When I say the engine is complete, I mean complete. Comes with alternator, water pump, PS pump, a/c compressor (not sure of a/c condition), flexplate, exhaust manifolds, intake, throttle body, etc etc. Also includes a 2005 wiring harness and computer (a couple of the connectors were cut from the harness, I think it was just O2's....easy to fix). The accessories are from a motor with 10k miles, so they are essentially brand new.
Engine has a Vinci Ultra-Torque cam installed, 210/218-551/551-116, good cam, idles like stock, easy to tune. Stock rockers and pushrods, but brand new yellow LS6 springs, good up to .57 lift.

I am asking $1400 for engine and install....I did my own motor and tranny swap by myself in my driveway, so I know what I'm doing. I have a lift, engine stand, and all the necessary tools.

I will also help tune it if you want (I am not a professional tuner, but I will help you get the VE tables and idle tables set correctly for the new cam). Asking an additional $100 for this just to cover the cost of the extra EFILive license.

When I did the motor swap I was originally planning on keeping the 5.3 and using it for a sand rail project, but I am going back for grad school so those plans are on hold for the next few years. Again, this engine was running great when I pulled it for the 6.0 swap. Pics below.

ttt....asking $1100 for you to come pick it up as-is, or $900 and I keep the Vinci cam and LS6 springs and put stock springs and the LQ9 cam in it....

Anybody interested in pieces of it if I part it out? Haven't decided to part it just yet, just wondering what the demand is for components of the motor...
