Default gmpp lsx 376

ok I am recently in need of a motor for my car. This 376 looks pretty decent for a complete boost ready motor. stab it with intake and oil pan and a few odds n ends to convert to ls3 and roll on. But befor I pull the trigger do yall know if there is any builders that can build anything better and as complete as this one for this price? around $5500. Thanks guys

There was one selling for 5K on LS1tech, it might still be available. Not much news about them, but alot of people question the rods in it. I passed, knowing lots of hidden cost in doing that 376, making it not so cheap. Try shopping for some builder quotes, such as LME. They are very competitive with price and customer service. You can email them what you're looking for, and probably get a quote the next day.

LME does great work for a good price. AES has good prices and will finance for a year

Just like you said, "intake and oil pan and a few odds n ends to convert to ls3". Along with fuel rails, remote coils, and accessories it didn't seem like a real value anymore.
