Differences between the LS1 and LS2?

Well there's a few that are around $1500-2000, but they're the older ones without the LS6 intake. There's even some for $3000. I'm still gonna see if the local wrecking yard has any.

You will probably be looking at $4000+ range for a good, low mileage LS1 and T56. You can get them with the 4L60E for quite a bit cheaper, since they are not as desirable as the 6 speeds.

I'm sure you could find one with a T56 that will fit your budget, but it's going to be an older motor with some mileage. It was worth a little extra $$$ for me to get a newer, low mileage unit.

And to answer your question, the LS1 and LS2 are almost identical and most parts are interchangable between the two.
