I'm on the low end of 7k and its not in yet. I rebuilt a LS Gen III and have it on the engine stand. I have almost everything I need to swap it out, but camping season caught up to me and I don't want to tear it down right at the start.
Here's some costs of the things that I got, or the ones I remember anyways
NV3550 to Ls adapter - $330
weld in engine mounts - $230
Donor LS with PCM/ECM - $500 (needed rebuilding, had a slight tick in the top end)
Tear down, rebuild, block work, head work, new pistons, Holley EFI system $4800
Kryo flow aluminum radiator - $600
simplified wiring harness and pcm programming - $850
GM fuel system integration pump - $270
I'll still need:
headers and exhaust
throttle, clutch release and transmission & transfer case shifter systems (linkages)
driveshafts
hoses
gauge clusters
So add another couple of grand for all that.
