Need 350 Block for my 1987 TPI

Please Help,
I have a 1987 GTA with a bad block. Can someone let me know what block can I buy to replace my bad 350 block?
This may seem like a dumb question. But i Want to know for sure. One mechanic said any block 1987-1994 block but change the cam, another said has to be 1985 to 1990 l98 block.
Please Please answer only if you really know.

they are pretty much generic. ,and your mechanic is right 87-94.is what you need. BUT why not just get a whole drop in engine?

Thanks for the info.
I looked at jegs, summit racing, year one. But they said they don't carry my engine anymore. If you know where I can look, let me know.
