I've been a member of the site for bout a year now. but most of you probably never seen me cause i read alot but i dont do much posting. But know its time to ask for help. I have a 2000 camaro ss with the T-56. Put the mosier 12 bolt with 4.11 posi 33 spline 1350 yoke fastChip program line loc spec stage 3 clutch so on so fourth. well i had my tranny serviced last july under warranty. well i guess when they put the starter back on they didnt tighten it enough (stupid me never checked it) and the starter worked its way loose and broke the starter mounts off the block so know it is time for a new engine and transmission. cause they didnt rebuild the Tranny for you know what. so that puts me out of engine and tranny so i was gonna get you guys input to what i should so been leaning toward the ls2 but i dont know. I dont know i take it to the track more than street driving. I do street race alot. but any and all help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

yeah the stater mounts on to the block it came loose and took a chunk off the block for you guys that have ls1 should now this and if not look and you will see what im talking about so no starter no car how am i going to start it unless a figured out someway to hold the starter on but im not into rigging..

I havn't ever looked at it but I'd be willing to bet that you could get the starter back on the block a helluva lot cheaper and easier than getting a new engine.

yeah by welding it but the starter has to be perfect alignment.

Do you think getting it welded on with proper alignement will be more expensive than a whole new engine?

Maybe he has the money to get a new engine, or it's time to upgrade.. he was asking about engines... the LS2 would be awesome, but so would the LS7 ... depends on what you can afford and find.
