89 Camaro Rs power assistance

I have a 89 Rs Camaro with around 150,000 miles. Original owner was my dad and its been passed down to me. It drives well but for a muscle car it needs upgrading of course.
One thing im planning on is either rebuidling the motor or if I should simply purchase another. I wanted to switch from a 305 to a 350 however Im not really sure of the process on that and if there would be other things besides the motor that i would have to replace which im sure there are.
Also I basically wanted some ideas on what would be some good ways to have more noticeable torque/power on the car.
When i step on the gas (rarely), i feel it should just pull me back with its power but it doesnt do it as it used to before so i wanted to see if yall could asssist in a car who could use some attention. Thanks!

There's a sticky uptop in the tbi forums that'll tell you everything you need to know. Actually, I think I have the link on my tabs.
