I have been looking on craigslist and fb marketplace for ppl parting out to find a descent engine, the scrap yards with mb want 2k - 5k for the engine alone.

If cams where a descent price then would help alot.
3.7, cams, tune, intake, some head work, would be over 300

Many 500's out there, but if there was a guide or list on things that need done for the swap to greatly decrease the down time, I would already have a 500 in it.
That would make some sense if the S350 also uses an electric fan like ours. I should have an engine bought today or tomorrow. The guy doing the work and I have narrowed it to a handful of engines. We found a handful in the 50K-100K mile range with warranties that ranged in price from about $800-$1100.
