Hey /o/ so i recently found a 6.0 lq4 engine that is in a 2007 Chevy express van do you think it's worth pulling it out and buying it? The transmission is out, front end is off of it and all it needs is to unhook the wiring harness and motor mounts it looked like someone is trying to get to it. I never pulled a engine before and the yard offers a engine hoist to remove it. I will go there tomorrow morning to see if i am convinced. The yard wants $250 for the engine.

It's a van so it likely has ~400k+ kms on it and is likely pretty tired. It could run fine or the internals could be grenaded but $250 isn't that much to gamble. If it's fucked in some way but the block is fine you could always rebuild it and have a solid engine to put in something.

It comes with a 30-day warranty so be ready to do something with it or stay home.

First off: What do you intend to do with it if you did decide to have it pulled out?
I only recommend it if you fully intend to devote the time into rebuilding it.
