I have a 1999 firebird v6. I found a used LS1 motor (complete engine with all front accessories, wiring harness, and computer) with 100,000 miles for $2200. The engine is still in his car and running good. Does that sound like a good deal? I would have to buy the tranny and some of the smaller stuff to finish the swap but I've seen people trying to sell other LS1 engines for about $3000. What do you guys think?

Is it with center bolt or perimeter bolt valve covers? -
Re: Found LS1 for $2200..worth it?
Whats the difference in the 2 Warshike? Sounds like a okay deal on the engine( what trans do you plan on running? If its a T-56 their expensive like $1000-$1500), I would have it gone through and rebuilt before installing, thats just me though since it has 100K on it. Also which years did the Ls6 intake become stock on the LS1, is it 00-02's?Originally posted by WarShrike View Post08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake

from what year car? if it is from 01 or 02 that is a pretty solid deal, it'll have the LS6 intake to then.

You can buy a 5.3L or 6L truck engine for less than a 1K.
It will have less miles and make just as much power.Last edited by transamtom1; 02-15-2014, 08:21 AM.Comment
