Chicago Marketplace also has, variously:

* Chevy Corvette (!) 283 ($500)
* Another different 283 ($200)
* '80 Trans Am engine ($700, probably a 301)
* Olds 307/200R4 ($300)
* Chevy 307 ($300)
* Olds 350 ($250)
* Ford 460 ($600)
* Chevy 300 w/3-speed Manual ($300)
* 3-5 Pontiac engines & Transmissions ($2500 takes it all)
* Chrysler 318 ($350)

These are all V8 swaps we'd love to see.

Appears to be a thermosiphon cooling type engine which probably works just fine for endurance racing.
