Wanted Engine 350 or 305 even another 2.8
Hey everyone I'm trying to restore My Wifes Camaro its an 87 that was her grandfathers and he pasted away and left her the car. It had the 2.8l but it's not worth fixing. Would really like to upgrade to a 350 or 305 but would take what I can get. If some one could help me out I'm in need of an engine CHEAP!!!! I know it's kind of stupid to ask that but I have two kids and I've been laid off for 6 months. I can only afford $200 to $300 Maybe I little more not sure as of right now. Looking for a complete running engine so I can just drop it in.
I know its a long shot but I figured I'd give it a try. The Car Means a lot to her and if I don't get it running soon we'll have to get rid of it.
Thank you

I am in southwest Ohio and have a 305 shortblock with pan (no heads or intake) for $150. Has 34k Origonal miles on it. Open to offers.
EDIT: Just realized you want a complete engine. That's going to be hard to do with your budget.
