Question about buying LQ9 engine

[olds87]

I have seen an article in magazine or online bought engine from LKQ corporation. So I have been looking at LQ9 from 2005 Chevy 1500 Silverado that in rear end ascendant. Here link to site: http://www.lkqcorp.com/home/home.asp

Have any one done this before?

LKQ is one of, if not the, largest auto dismantlers in the country. So, I think I would feel pretty comfortable that you would get the same engine they are selling and they would provide decent customer service.

I've only ever bought small replacement parts from them (A/C control panel, taillights, etc) , but they've always worked and I've received them quickly.

I bought a 5.3 from them back in the summer. They were by far the cheapest 450 bucks and it had a good harness on it. The engine also had a six month warranty. I would deff. buy from them again.
