    This the engine with the distributor under the water pump? Good engine, but those pumps and parts are crazy expensive. You might do better Craigslisting the engine and getting a LS1.

    Keep everything you have until the swap is done and the engine runs down the road.
    Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.

    Tow the car to a spot on a back road somewhere. By the time the cops notice it and want to tow it, hopefully you'll have remembered every part you needed.

    Pull any vacuum hose or formed hose out of the thing. Pull the prop. valve and anything small you don't think you will need because you can always throw it away later.

    I really suggest buying a car cover for it to keep the neighbors happy. You will allmost certainly need something off it. Even if you remember everything, you now have to remember where you put it all. Just about anything you need will cost as much or more than a car cover. Also it makes a good dumping ground for any extra steel parts you have afterwords and it all can be hauled to the scrapyard at once.

    Keep it until your 715 is done and running. Your wallet will thank you.
