"Options are for girls"
I had seen the add on eWillys.com this morning. There is enough goods there to feel pretty confident that it would be a wise purchase. A Carter carb and a starter are pluses. The main thing about the block would be to look around the distributor for a crack in the block, but other then that it should be at least buildable. Even if it had a crack, most competent machine shops can fix that as well. The main fact is that the engine turns over. I say go for it. Even if you are not in need of it, it would be a great bartering tool to get something you do need.
If you are in the market for an L-134 that could be rebuilt, I say go for it, use your best bargaining skills. Starter, carburetor all are good add-ons to a bare block. It might have been a pull out for SBC mod -
The intake manifold and exhaust manifold are worth $150 at least. The starter and carb bring a bunch more. As LarrBeard alluded to, it looks like a great re-builder.
Thanks boys for the intel. It's about an hour from the casa. I need five tires for cj3 so there is my dilemma.

Good tires, (or even a matching set) are overrated. On second thought, don't follow my poor example.
Dilemma solved. Someone bought the engine. It's probably for the better.
On an upside I found the extension rods for the spare tire jack on ebay for my '68 FJ40, so that's something.
