Hello all,
My friend has a 93 formula whos engine has died. My question is, where can we get a turnkey LT4 or HO LT1 to drop in there. I have been looking at the vendors but nobody seems to advertising much. Any leads would be appreciated..... Thanks!!

It's a perfect excuse.... If you have the pocket book to accommodate. No the stock trans won't work w/o some added things. I don't remember what it all takes to get an LSx to bolt to a LTx 4L60E. Then again, since his is a 93, it's a 4L60, which won't even work period.
Just have a local shop build up an LT1 for him. There's no such thing as a stock HO LT1 (That I'm aware of). That's basically what the LT4 is, but it's no god send.

There are built LT1's on ebay, and I have seen a couple LT4 complete engines, ecu, wiring, everything... out of wrecked cars on ebay motors.

If you want to shell out $6k for a bare Engine, still have to buy the Acessories.
My Stroker cost almost that..that's why you do it yourself.![The Judge](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_judge.gif)
Damn right..use it if you got it. It's Air Conditioned, and the Music and Beer is close by.

GTO LS1/LS2's and Vette's LS6's are on ebay and other part out sources for less then half of that, with everything you need, and sometimes include the tranny.
Heck, I was looking at an 04 GTO engine myself....... ya bastard

The reason that engine is 5600 is because its BRAND SPANKING NEW, with a 24 month, 50K mile warranty.

LS6 400hp 395tq P# 17801268 $6450~

LS364 440hp 404tq P# 17802134 $5000~ (LSx @ 364cid and Carb intake. Get the MSD Box kit and you're set MSD-6010)
