your $800 stove just may have cost you a lot more.

Ya, no worries there, it's already on a breaker (2, for 240V), and it's copper wiring. I already removed the wiring from the old stove. Gonna hack out wall and wire up tomorrow.

you shouldn't have any issue with the new stove, looks like you already have 240V.  As long as your neutral and gnd are correct the red/black are somewhat interchangeble.
