Good reason why chebbie motors end up in other vehicles. the main reason is he availability of parts. Plus the rear sump oil pans make them an easy swap.
I too think it's a sin, but it's not a deal killer

Can't tell for sure but the front end may be set too far back; the wheels don't look centered in the opening. Many sellers that have this problem tend to turn the front wheels to disguise it. Just sayin'.
