Looks like a decent car for the money.

What parts are you swapping to it?

Looks nice! You'll be really happy with this motor so long as you take care of it. You should ask the seller if they replaced any of the timing components. If they didn't replace the timing chain tensioner, I strongly suggest you do this yourself for the piece of mind. An updated tensioner was released by gm some time ago and resolves an issue the older tensioner had which caused the chain to lose tension. That was the cause of death for a lot of these motors across all platforms.
