I see them on ebay for 3000 and up. Make sure you wiring harness with the motor.

No problem. Have you looked into the LS1 swap? The LS1 is not a straight drop in motor. You're going to have to make custom motor mounts and the oil pan is going to be modified to clear the crossmember. You might want to go to LS1tech.com and do some searches in the Hybrid section.
