Its at 69 auto salvage in mcalester, OK 918-423-2530 or 1800-722-9618 if you want all the details on it. I dont get anything out of this obviously just tryin to help you out. I almost bought it just to resale but the wife wouldnt go for it :ugh2:

Damn, i bought one last week 65k miles, its an 02 Sierra Denali trk, just the engine, harness, with acc bracket and idler/tensioners

no alt or p/s or a/c like i could used a/c for 1720 with core charge

should have known it when i bought something, i would have found a better deal

Thanks anyways

the place is TEXMEX in houston,tx... that price is my price.. i buy a lot of stuff from them... 3 motors, 3 trans and quite a few misc stuff.. (not all at the same time, but over the course of 1 year)... it would come as a complete pull out, all acc, motor,trans, harness,computer, 2ft of exhaust pipe probally get a pair of 02's... maybe snag the trans lines and rad lines and a maf. the guy i deal with is hella cool.. talk to them like they are the man, and get what you want :)
anyway ive seen them go for 2500-3000 so i know i woulda had a great deal, except i got skurred when all the techs at my work were like the 80e gobbels up more gas :( plus our medium duty mech works on 6.0's every other day. i decided to go with the weak sauce 5.3 :)
later
clint

sorry the engine i found isnt up to you standards of performance quik.

so for the time and effort involved not to mention the money you can find another 01+ motor for same or lesser money
