Ebay. Store called Green point auto parts. Was kinda a weird deal. Fist they sent me a 5.3 and i oredred a 6.0. Then they sent it with out power steeting and starter. But i ended up with all the right parts and got a pretty good deal. If your not in a massive hurry i would rec them but if you need it fast maybe not. Very nice people tho. And Very fast shipping.

if you have cash. call a few yards and ask what they have or put your order in. there is a 6.0/4l80/ecu 70-80K miles for $1500 at a yard 10mins from my house.

thanks nomrlz i never thought to try and place an order, most of the yards that i have called didnt have any in stock but ill try that
theres quite a few in my area, and a alot in the chicago area,
if i can stumble across a directory of salvage yards that would be perfect

--Green point auto, thanks 85, i was on ebay and saw there store also they have a decent selection, but higher milage

y5mgisi thanks, that car-part has tons of info
Clyde65 LQK seems to be decent too...
decisions, decisions!!

I got them to drop the price almost 400 bucks. My motor has 88xxx on it. Was rusty on out side but great on inside.
