the motors are getting hard to get these days
and i dont think big holden in australia have any surplus motors any more
just some dealers might still have some from when they bought them cheap awhile ago

and remember very big holden in usa prob wont have as many surplus motors now that they have gone thru bankruptcy and stuff over the past year

maybe search on ebay seen some good buys on there
make sure u get warranty thou even thou they are brand new should be ok but good to have warranty also research about some older 6lts were sold with problems but id expect them to be gone by now
prestons holden were ok when daniel was there we bought alot fo stuff thru them
not sure on new guy there but u really need to sit down and tell the person tuning yr ecu what yr overall outcome is and what u want to work with the rest of the car as 99% of tuners and holden dealers have no idea on what tune to run and what ecu u need
all they are good for is drive in drive out late model commodore tunes

06 to 08 is similar then after that they changed and later ones makes things more difficult
basically the holden dealer sells u the matching bits to suit yr motor but in the end it doesnt mean it will work ok for yr situation so make sure u ask the person a million questions
