Greetings all,
Cheaper motors can definitely be found out there, but don't forget that generally you get what you pay for!
This is one you may want to keep an eye on, 50K miles motor and trans no reserve... only @ $400 with 2 days left~

One suggestion is trying to find a C5 Corvette motor as it may save you a bit. It is a bit more money, but it is a bit more motor too~ You will need to swap out the oil pan to a C5 pan, plus if you can get the aluminum motor mounts with it that will save you about $300-$400 all together. Here is one on Ebay for $3400 with ECU & wiring~

Hopefully i'll get the motor back in the car tomorrow and try to start figuring out the wiring~
More to come~
Thanks!
