I assume you mean swap above into a LTx car. I say go for it if you are in need of a new motor. Also I think if it has the Fast 90/90, that means the fast 90 mm intake manifold with fast 90 mm throttle body (not cheap), therefore it does not have a LS6 intake.

It sounds like a great deal. If you don't need it, find someone that does.

Well does he have worked heads? You say built, does it have forged pistons and rods? If it's stock other than the intake system, I might take a second look at the $2500. If you can get the headers and the y pipe too, that makes it better but I don't know that I'd give $2500 for stock long block.
