I will look more into shipping when its needed.

The LS3 can be seperated from the trans if needed. Price will be $9,000 without trans.

If you know of a shipper that would be great to know. I ckecked a few and that was the best price i could find.

Thanks, John

No disrespect to Ron as I know he has experience with shipping an engine however when I was looking to get a subframe to MN from CA I learned of U-Ship It is pretty slick how it works, they bid on your shipment from portal to portal. You basically need it crated and weighed, once you sign up the offers start coming in within hours.

None taken Robert! Uship is a great option in many situations. I have no skin in this game, and like using a carrier I know if/when shipping a motor.

That was kind of where I was coming from. While I wanted to offer U-Ship as an option if for no other reason than to rate-shop for comparison there is ALOT to be said for going with a known and proven carrier... especially with something precious worth lots of dough.

Just to be a nice guy if anyone wants to ship me a kick@$$ LSx I am perfectly willing to rate the carriers services and report back on pro's/con's in exchange for me keeping the engine. I'm just that nice of guy.

+1 that was my point earlier. Jegs for example... this engine with free shipping + GMPP warranty under 7K you can get a kit with Muscle car Swap pan and GMPP harness + Ecu for under 10....

I never looked at Jegs. They list a few LS3's. form $6,192 to $8,785 and a couple of them are carb'd. Neither of them come have all of the accessories so I think this engine is priced fair at $9,000 and looking at the trans prices, new they are close to 4k so $1,500 for the trans is a decent price I guess. The ones that are close to comparable have the harness, pedal and ecu.

Like I said, Not my stuff. Just trying to lend a hand in selling it.
