Best car or truck to get chevy 350 from for swap?

Hello my third gen brothers, I hav 305 tbi in my camaro now and I wanna swap it for a chevy 350 like everyone that ever owned a 305 camaro lol. But I'm wondering which car or truck should I get it from. Like should I get it from some Chevy truck from a certain year, a 80's corvette or something like that. I'm planning to just put in my car the way it is maybe new heads or cams but later in future, Thats why I want it to already have good power and performance the way it is. Thanks guys.

96-2000 truck

You'll need to buy an intake manifold, you can't use (and wouldn't want it if you could) what comes on it, and your existing one won't fit

Sofa's referring to the fullsize trucks. The C & K series. GMCs will have the same engines as the Chevys I believe.
