Cheap crate motors and trannies.
Where can I find really cheap crate motors for my 89gt, horsepower doesn't matter, even stock WELL rebuilt motors are fine. I don't plan on buying one right now but just so I can start planning for the future. Also a good place to buy good automatic trannies, and ones that will hold some power. Thanks for the help.

RE: Cheap crate motors and trannies.
A place called T&L engines outside of Charlotte, NC. They build motors for small NASCAR Cup, Busch, Truck, ARCA teams. They have a complete 347 for $2500-3,000. Im thinking of getting a 427 stroker with 550HP for $5000. Comes with everything but the headers, water pump, and distributor. They are cheap. Some places you can only get a shortblock for the price they want a whole crate motor! You can find them on ebay as they sell alot of engines there. 100% POSITIVE Feedback the last time I checked and had sold over 1,000 products.

If so, I like what they have. Now I'm thinking about the 400+ HP engine for around $3,700. Looks like a steal.
