A White Elephant Gift exchange party has been called a 'Yankee Swap' in north eastern United States since 1828.
It probably got the name because it's the kind of thing the earliest thrifty New England Yankees would have appreciated.

I can't find the documentation, but the basic law is that the engine you swap in must be from a vehicle that is the same year or newer as the vehicle that you are installing the engine. So if you car is a 2000, you can swap in any engine from any car that is a 2000+ model, but any engine from 1999 or earlier is off limits. It's a good idea to have legit paperwork to prove the origin of the engine as well.
