Simple, put the chevy motor in the chevy product. I assume you bought it because the current motor you have is a replacement candidate.

A 98 350 with only 17,000 miles, if that's accurate and the motor's complete sounds like a decent price to me, even though I don't think I'd pay that much for it personally

PS-Is there any particular reason you bought the motor?

It's a chevy, its always nice to have a spare around because you know you'll need it.
