I looked at LKQ quite a bit but they didn't have what I was looking for at the time. I ordered mine from Schram Auto in Michigan. They specialized in pull-outs intended for swaps like ours. They weren't the absolute cheapest, but they had a great selection and were knowledgeable about what was needed and not needed when doing this sort of drive train transplant. Most of the other "salvage yards" I called were happy to sell me an engine, but it was stripped down, not complete like this.
