Default WTB: GENIII stock crankshaft

bought a 5.3L...ripped it open and discovered oil in 2 cylinder on the left bank...removed oil pan and was devastated to find the bottom of each pistons seem to have been beaten to hell and the reluctor wheel destroyed along with counterweight next to it...found one piston skirt to be missing a piece...found what looks like a pin of some sort and a piece of metal in the oil pan...needless to say i'm pissed about the purchase...


which leads me to this thread...i'm looking for a good stock gen3 crankshaft...i'm in houston, texas...anyone local has one for sale?

I just looked on ebay and seen one for $50. There's got to be someone around with one. What are you looking to spend?

if there's one for 50 i'd definitely get it if it's good...i don't have a price in mind other than the cheaper the better...

can you link me to the $50 one that you saw?

I have a crank from a 2005 5.3. Shoot I have the whole short block 67k on it. It’s is taken apart but would sell the block and crank for $200.00 plus shipping. If you want the floating rods and a set of new GM L33 flat tops and another 250.00. I’m sure we could find a way to ship if your interested.

Thanks @JeepinJeremy....I already have 2 iron block and 1 true ls1 in my garage...ls1 going into my son's s2000 and iron block was gonna go back into my 300zx.

I'm sure it'd be uber expensive to around 275 pounds of metal...I'm looking local for now...but will keep you in mind...thanks again...
