Default New takeout LS engine source?

Peer pressure and frustration is getting to me. I'm toying with the idea of going with an LSx .

Once upon a time I saw a few basically brand new takeout L99/LS3 engines listed. I think maybe they were from performance shops that do packages, e.g. Lingenfelter, Fesler?, etc. Does anyone know of any still doing that?

I spoke with Travis (daytonayellaz) this morning and he regularly gets low mileage, i.e. <25k mi takeouts. Those can be had significantly less than a GMPP crate. Much more affordable to perform the swap than I thought. He is a huge help and seems really knowledgeable btw. Don't hesitate to give him a call if you are looking for a source.

I'm just trying to cost this all out. I need to get an idea of all the options and price differences.

Thanks!
