New GMPP 480 HP 6500 + front runner 3K Plus t56 magnum 3.5 K=12k..

Why would anyone consider a drop put? or did I call the wrong place??
what vendor here sells drop outs? You can pm me if you want. I don't know the particulars, but often the drop outs include a lot more of the small stuff, ECU's, accessories, etc that a crate engine may not. But if the price was even close to new for roughly the same things there's no way I'd buy used.
