I just got an 01 LS1 motor with an LPE GT2-3 Cam. Was completely done by LPE and it has 22K miles on it. A friend of mine swapped it to me for some other parts. I had intended on putting it into my 91 Firebird Formula..but just learned that these cars are more on the rare side, so with 50K original miles on the TPI motor I am deciding (I think) not to do it. So I have this motor which has the LS6 intake on it and it is the 01+ block..so it is the newer block that was re-cast with the windage holes to promote better crank case breathing between bays. I has a Corvette Oil Pan, Water pump, pulley, Alt bracket, Alt. Fuel Rail/Injectors, and most of the sensors.
Although the long block is assembled, I have a set of AFR Dual Valve Springs and a Katech Ported LS6 oil pump....also have the 01 PCM.
If you are interested let me know as I thinking about getting rid of it. I can take pics and send them to you..it is still on the pallett, is clean, all I did was unwrap it to inspect.
Motor dyno'd at 380 rwhp with this sleeper cam (barely bigger then the 02 LS6 Cam). It doesn't burn oil my friend told me it was a very strong motor and was/is in perfect shape...he was just dropping in a larger motor (LS3) into his C5 and pulled it. This is why it has a lot of the parts already (not just a long block).
I have been watching LS6 heads on Ebay go for $499 fully assembled. If you put LS6 heads on this block it would make 400whp (est) with the current cam. If you went for a nasty cam like one of the LG cams...you could make up to 470 rwhp with this setup.
Near Stockton...the motor is still on the UPS freight pallet that it shipped on. I just unwrapped the plastic off of it to check for any shipping damage and there is none...motor looks great. The guy who sold it to me is a reputable guy on the Corvette Forum and have no reason to doubt that the motor is in great shape. Let me know if you are interested, I am not desparate for cash..I am just trying to clear some space in my shop now...and have no need for the motor any longer.
lol why does it matter...you going to come to my house and rob me. lol. This is Stockton remember.
On the serious side I could meet you if that is what you want to do. Let me know...the Police Dept. is very close to my work and we can meet there or if you live in Stockton I could drive it over to your place and show the motor.

Motor should dyno around 380 rwhp with the LPE GT2-3 cam (barely bigger then the 02 LS6 Cam). It doesn't burn any oil my friend told me it was a very strong motor and was/is in perfect shape...he was just dropping in a larger motor (LS3) into his C5 and pulled it.

Ok, im a little confused! In the first desription, you stated that the motor was from " a friend of yours that you traded for some parts ", but in your first reply, you stated that it was from " some guy from a corvette forum, and that it was shipped to your home ". Are you sure about the discription, and history of this motor? Sorry, just want to be sure of what im looking at.
