Unhappy I need someone to do an engine swap for me and also my other 96Z is for sale

I have an engine that I need swapped into my 96 Z LT1 with hooker long tubes. The engine in the car is toast. I do not have the time nor the tools to do this at my house and also do not have the amount of money that a shop will charge, but I do have some money. Any suggestions on where to turn is appreciated.

I will also end up having to sell my other 96 Z because my corporation is apparantly liquidating our division. The Black Z is a fully loaded 96Z body with leather and t tops. The engine was built for the 10 psi vortec on the car. This was B. J. Shrader's (Slomaro) car from Texas that I bought last year. It also has a built transmission and upgraded fuel system. The car currently is not running because when my girfriend went to hook up the jumper cables to her truck to get it running she tapped the ends together, annihilating my battery and some fuses that I havent had time to track down. BJ said the car made 505 at the wheels on a dyno run. I originally ended up with $12,000 in this car and was hoping to recover most of the money but offers will be considered.

I don't know if this will help but if you can find a way to get it up to Ocala I'll do it for $150 and you can pick it up the next day.

Thanks for the offer but I actually had a friend who use to work on my other cars just come back into town so he said he will do it when he finds the time.
