Best prices I've seen are at crate engine depot.

There are two diferent prices, one for replacement engines (i.e. STOCK) and there is a premium for GM Performance engines.

Reman LS3 - $5300

New complete LS3 - $6300

Just depends what you are looking for I guess.

I agree, createenginedepot seems to have best prices around.

For what it's worth, Pace Performance has 'em for $6119.95.

Save you a couple hundred over Crateenginedepot.com.

That said, be sure to check the costs on shipping. There are many folks out there that jack up the shipping price so they can list a lower price.

I have not yet ordered from Pace.

One person who I have ordered many parts from and have always had great service at a great price is Jeff Tate at Days Chevrolet. I would run the question by him -- you already know the ball park price. See what he has to say.

jtate at dayschevrolet dot com.

No, I don't have any association with him (other than him selling me parts).

I think the greatest difference is the $1200.00 core charge. The performance engine does not have one.
