Depends on what you consider cheap, and the performance you want... Do you have emission checks over there?

you could buy a complete tuned port 350 with computer and wiring for probably $1000 here in the states and rebuild it with some performance parts, i dont know how availability is in switzerland. or you can buy a crate engine from GM for $3000-3500US, shipping won't be cheap though
