Default Looking for an LS1

Hey, I'm looking for a complete LS1 engine around Chicago, preferably with wiring harness and computer. I'm also open to Iron block 6.0L engines too. Let me know if you have one, year, miles, condition and price. Thanks.

Yeah...I don't see much info.

Anyway, I'm still looking for a good LSx engine! I'll look at all of the possibilities LS1, LS2, LS6, Iron block 6.0L...and so on...

Will be removing the LS1 from my car (2002 Camaro SS) in the next few weeks, replacing with Forged 402. It will be the short block minus the sheet metal. Also have the rear end, 3.42 with Auburn High Torque Diff., and multiple other parts, SLP Air Intake, drive shaft, etc. that came on the car. Car was SLP car with all mods they did put on. Prices on items negotiable and I would be fair. Looking to recoup some of the money I'm sinking into my build. I'm located in Decatur, IL, about 2 1/2 hours south of Chicago. Engine will have right at 30,000 miles on it with absolutely no problems. 17,000 miles were run with Procharger P1SC power adder at 7psi, has seen no track use, meticulous maintenance.

I have money...but I'm also looking for a good deal. I don't want to put a price limit on it.


And Brian, I know a couple of guys with race cars with black hoods lol.
