So I was at my local junkyard the other day and found a 2005 ish Chevy 3500 express delivery van from my local furniture store. I looked under the hood, and there lies, from what I can tell, an LS3.
I asked my friend that runs the yard, he said it came in running, ran great. He used his fork lift to destroy the box on the back, some guy took the rear axle, and I took the leaf springs. Aside from that, nothing else is missing.
I asked him how much, he said 200$ for the engine, the whole harness, the computer, and anything else you want out of it.
I told a buddy about it, and he was going to come get it to put in his firebird, but since abandoned that project.
I'm not an LS guy, wouldn't touch one with a 10 foot pole, dont have any use for it, but I know alot of you guys are, and I could'nt let a good find like that go to waste. From what I've heard, they're like gold now.
I watch a bunch of shows where they talk about their "junkyard LS swap", and thought someone out there would want the same.
Figured I'd throw it out there incase there's someone that's just being dying to get there hands on one.
It's at Gallegos Auto Salvage in Las Vegas, New Mexico, or as everyone here calls it "Prim's junkyard". I can get the phone number if anyone is interested.
There is also a 4L80E in another truck at the same yard, if you want a set. He said 50$ for that.
