C5 Ls3 swap quote??
Soo I have a wrecked C6 that rather than sell I'd like to pull the ls3 and drop into my C5 I'll soon be getting. Rather than do the work myself I'm having a shop do it and I got quoted for a hair over 6000 to pull said C5 engine and drop in said Ls3 engine with a Ls7 clutch, dyno tuning, and some other swap essentials. Kinda steep it seems to me. Also the price isn't including pulling the Ls3 from the C6 or the headers it will need as well.
Whatchu guys think? Is the price right?

This article might give you some insight to parts needed and the process. It is my plan when the ls1 craps out.
