Default need LS motor for swap- AL

thought I would hit the more local area to see if anyone has what I am looking for. Gonna do an LS swap into my thirdgen Z, open to LS1/LQ4/LQ9/even 5.3 engines. gonna stick with auto- so am going to need a trans too. would love to find a wrecked something to pull whole drivetrain from- as I will also need harness and front accesories. let me know if anyone has something close to Birmingham AL. Yes, I watch the parts board and searched all of CL/preformance trucks/thridgen/etc regularly- just haven't found the right deal yet!!
