Doesn’t seem possible though.

seems reasonable…Looks to be part number 12498399, which comes with both Corvette and a Camaro Oil Pan. The ebay ad doesn’t say anything about the oil pans. Maybe some other items are missing as well.

not a complete motor but a long block it looks like. the the complete lS1 crate is like 5000 now without harness i believe. ls6 was like 6200

so 4000 for a long block like that seems reasonable. still a good price tho, abit cheaper than i’d expect
