    In Louisiana a verble contract is binding, I'd go ask about it, if they wouldn't give it to me, some1 there would have to call the police. Cause it would get bad, I think u got an ok deal, the trans would make it a great deal. I think they prob sold it and made some more money off it. I bought my 5.3 out of an 05 avlanche for 600. Was a certified motor with 50k on it came with harness and all accessorys, and the brought it to my house.

    +1..... I would talk to them ( or the same guy ) calmly about where the rest of the agreed parts disappeared to,I would also ask them if you can look at the truck they pulled everything from an see if they left any "parts" behind, and while you are there snoop around for the factory air box lid or the rad. support cover for the engine size. But I would still approach them about the missing parts, or would have left everything there and picked the stuff up during normal hours another day to dispute the problem... JMO


    Good luck with whichever road you choose.... and the money was not a total waste but the trans would have def. sealed the deal for that price!

    This I do know, I am from 15 miles south of Lake Charles. As active duty I do not get to live there anymore. Your engine sounds like a great deal. I am about to talk to them again and we will see how this goes.

    This is what I am going to attempt. The donor is no longer available cause once gutted and stripped, it goes straight to the crusher. Hopefully we can calmly work this out.

    Believe I may have figured it out, will find out tomorrow whether I can order the factory replacements or I will just machine out some new ones. I sent you back a PM with more information. Also I may be able to reuse the factory V6 mounts by cutting them off the plate, cutting the excess plate off and then tig weld the clam shells back onto the plates as close the the factory location as possible as the V8 mounts would have been. The clam shells are pretty beat up after almost 20 years so new would definately be better in my case.
