I happened to find this one on LS1Tech. I had been looking on ebay, searching Craigslist and anywhere else I thought might have one these for about 2 months. I limited myself somewhat because I wanted low miles and the 6.2/6L8E. Finding them with 25-50K miles is fairly easy AND cheaper. I also talked to William at American Pickup Salvage in NW Arkansas. He's got some really good stuff/deals and I probably would have bought a 2500 HD 6.0/6L90E from him had I not found this one. Bottom line: do your homework, no what package you want and keep your eyes open for a deal.

He's like that kid from the sixth sense, but he doesn't see dead people, he sees incredible deals!

I had a chance to swing by robs house when he wasn't home and snap some spy photos of the secret engine cover he is going to put on the 6.2. It's top secret and custom made so rob please don't be mad.

Thanks! I can't wait....

. Here's what I'm going to do for my driveshaft. It 3.5" aluminum driveshaft that uses a Porsche 930 CV joint connects to the 6L80 output shaft. This will allow me to use the Camaro output shaft and not have to open the tranny up and switch to a slipe yoke style. It's rated to a 1000HP and costs around $750. It was going to cost around a $1000 to change the ouput shaft, not counting buying a new driveshaft.....
