What 350 is the best swap for TPI 305?

I need a 350 crate moter to swap out my 305 in my 87 IROC. I just want to pull the old motor out, and drop a new one in. What engine would be the best, and what is involved besides simply swapping everything over? I'd like to run mid 14's. The car has AC as well. Thanks.
