Or find some local guys to help out.

Well I went to a junkyard today and they had a engine from the 2000 buick car, I forgot which model but they wanted 700 dollars for the engine and it had 103,000 miles on it. The guy start the motor up and everything and it runs real quick and no valve ticking but I just thought that was too much money. I thought that engine should be like 3-500 dollars, could I be wrong about this.

Well, I looked Ed Morard "3800 supercharger engine" on ebay. They asking for $699.99 plus shipping $??. I think it is safe that your local junk yard is cheapest. All I know Ed Morad is cheapest. Since they are same price for charge that engine.

Maybe someone will chime in if it is right price or too much.
