Starting to get parts for my LFX swap and haven't been able to find what I'm looking for locally yet. If any of y'all have a Camaro LFX dropout with manual transmission, flywheel/clutch, accessories and downpipes, etc., hit me up. MV5 transmission is fine. Looking for <40k miles.

I'm willing to pay for shipping as well if you're not local enough for me to drive and pick it up.

have you looked at car-part.com lkqonline.com ?

Yep. Unfortunately they don't tend to sell changeovers. They sell predominantly individual components, such as the engine, sans accessories, or the transmission. Buying each individually, especially getting a new clutch/flywheel gets really expensive, really fast.

The biggest issue is that I'm doing a BAR certified swap, which means I need the OEM downpipes with the catalytic converters, which cannot be purchased second hand from local vendors. Basically, if I piece everything together, its going to be $4000+, whereas VR8 is currently looking out for a full dropout for me. They just picked up a full dropout with 14k miles for $1800, and they're hopeful they can find another similar example soon, and ship it out to me when the find it. I'm just making sure I'm checking all avenues right now.
