Yes, they are available direct and from various vendors. From http://www.gmpartsdirect.com part #88894057 (ENGYLS6GW
), the price is $4,784.00 (list is $7,989.28), outright (no core charge).

High-performance versions (upgraded heads/cam and other parts) from various vendors sell them for ~$6000 (with a core charge).

SDPC lists it at $4,688.00.


They turn up for sale in the for sale section often. I have a friend with one that is partially disassembled that came out of a low milage car for sale also.

The sub- $5000 LS6's may just be for a long block. Anyone know if this price-point includes full accessories, intake, covers, exhaust manifolds, etc.? For example, a person dropping an LS6 into a street rod would need a "full" crate motor.

I've seen complete new engines (minus air cleaner, starter & engine covers) at $6,950. That price includes the stock injection and headers and mine also came with the flywheel, clutch and pressure plate.
