Looking for a L98

Does anyone have or know where I can get a L98 engine. I'm looking for one to rebuild and put in my 87 Iroc. I thought I'd find one at the Super Chevy show but I was wrong.

Thanks

If you have an LS1 to trade, there's an L98 in my car you can have

I tried the classifieds. I figured I would check the Michigan forum to save on shipping

I no longer have the TPI intake but I have a complete motor, it was the L98 out of my 1985 corvette. It has 20,000 miles since rebuild, it was bored .030 over with new pistons, crank was ground .010 under, I plasti-gauged it and it is within specs but it shows some wear on the bearings so it should use new crank bearings. The short block is fully assembled, the heads are off, they are the cast iron vette heads. Complete with oil pan, oil pump, timing chain, flexplate, 210/216 cam lifters etc. Its sitting in my garage, you can have it for $300
