Suggestions???!!!

Ok guys and gals (if any)!!!
I have a question. But first my story!!!

I recently purchased a 92RS - i thought after a V8 Camaro - nothing could go wrong with me burning rice (plz dont start a flame on me using the term rice) and all!!! But after a reading a whole bunch of posts i found out about 305's - 350's - big blocks - small blocks and yes tbi and tpi!!! Yes my camaro isnt that fast cause its a 305 tbi - and this is a problem for me and my pal called ego!!!

So i was wondering - could u guys give me suggestions on engines that i could put in my car!!! Im looking for something new and probably profesionally installed!!! Ok im not the DIY guy!!! I read the post on "new kick *** engine" - pretty cool - and i heard of other engines too!!! Looking to get atleast 300Hp to the rear wheels with just the new engine - if possible!!!

Now i know there are other things involved besides a new engine and GO - but im just asking about an engine with ALL ACCESSORIES needed to make it run!!! The rest comes later!!!

Im not a too educated in cars - so plz bear with me!!!

Thanks
Jay

PS Plz remember - engine only nothing else!!! ANd i have an auto - so what kinda tranny is it - and will it hold up to a bigger engine???

If you have an auto you have a 700r4. It is a really good transmission. There are guys that are putting like 400 horses out with a stock tranny. I don't know about which motor is best but I wouldn't go any lower than an L98 if I were you.
