I've been lurking for awhile and recently got a 2008 sky redline in yellow. was always interested in a ls2 ish engine. meaning if i find a cheap ls1, ill go that route. but being in new jersey, on the border of nj/ny.... does anyone have recommendations on where i could go for a swap?

Welcome. Enjoy the permagrin.

Welcome, and you might consider also joining the Kappaperformance.com forum since they have a lot of east coast members.

Last I heard forum vendor DDM is no longer installing V8s, but forum sponsor Performance Autowerks still does, and a placed called Wade's Garage used too, and I believe they still do, but they're main focus is hot rods.

Also, don't discount the OEM 2.0, between tunes, stronger internals, and bigger turbo's, you can easily attain 400HP and higher.
