Default Where to find L67 parts in Massachusetts?

Hi, i have a 2003 ss ive started collecting parts for a top swap, but having trouble finding L67 stuff in my area.
Im currently looking for the passenger upper motor mount that also has the supercharger tensioner, and the lower idler pulley stand off near the crank pulley.
Ive had no luck with eBay or the local scrap yards, does anyone know of a good spot to get these parts?

A couple of options:

-Search local junkyards on a website like car-part.com. it searches nationwide, and you can filter by zip code. Looks like there are some complete cars in NJ, NY, etc. A bit of a drive, but hopefully you could find a fairly complete car to finish all the rest of the parts you need.

-Search used cars for sale locally. Used, high mileage w body cars dont generally sell for much money - even better if you can find one with body damage/ rust. You can pull what you need, part out the other big parts, and scrap the shell. Or if it's still a fairly decent car, you could swap your old parts to it to 'un top swap' it and sell it when you're done. With used car values already pretty low, you wont lose much money for it being NA vs supercharged.


I dont know how many other pieces youre missing, but if those are your last 2 items - maybe it would be best to drop a WTB post on every major 3800 board - 3800 pro, GPF, 3800 performance FB group, 3800 Marketplace FB group, any local w body / 3800 pages / etc. Someone certainly has those spare parts laying around, just need to cast a wide enough net to find someone motivated enough to go dig them out and ship them given theyre pretty low $ value items.

I don't think they carry either of the two items the OP is asking for (idler standoff and engine head mount bracket / pulley mount) - were you able to find either on their website?

They're just not typically repair type items / wear parts, so Id think it would be a bit unusual for them to carry stuff like that.
