LS2 motor
Hey guys, I have two questions. I have a chance to buy an LS2 motor with only 4800 miles on it. They want 2,500 for it, but I didn't ask if this was installed. Is this a good price?
Second, is this a car motor, I heard that there is a difference between a car motor and a truck motor.
Is this a 6.0?
The truck motors are built with more torque. They said that they could build it for me, like mill and port the heads, install a cam, an LS7 intake and some other stuff and get about 550 rwhp out of it. I can do all of this stuff later cause of my budget.

I didn't know that it was 400hp. what do think installed, about a $1000? That will be a nice baseline to start building with.
Quik, you mentioned the TB and intake are different. Are they bigger?
I'm going to jump on this deal!! how much is a new PCM, if I need to buy that too. My tuner builds drag cars at the Las Vegas speedway, so I'm sure he would know what to do.
