You should be able to get any 350 bare shortblock for around 100 bucks (maybe more for a roller block) from a local junkyard. I would go from there. Get it bored and slap some new internals in. if your looking for power it will be in the heads and cam so don't cop out here. Sitting Bull as you probably know is making good power with some 305 heads. Read his sig for details. They can be had for very cheap.

My machine shop picked up a roller block for my 305 for 100.00 so another third gen will be back on the road soon. Picked up a spare 305 from the machine shop for 125.00 think I will build me a spare motor
