This is a low mileage engine with 90,000 original miles. To clarify it does not include exhaust manifolds or accessories/accessory drive, air cleaner or carb. I have no idea what I should be paying.

If it doesn't match the chassis number of the truck it's going into it isn't worth much more than scrap. Any used engine is an unknown quantity. You have no idea of the true condition of the motor until it is disassembled and magnafluxed for cracks. That's why you shouldn't pay more than the nearest junkyard would give for it.
