Gwatney Chevrolet used to do performance stuff. There is a place in mena called street and performance that knows their stuff. I bet both are high though.

Getting the motor rebuilt should run maybe 2k...unless you add performance parts.

You could always order a motor from someone like texas speed and put it in yourself if you know how.

My vote is for a 408 from Texas Speed or Livernois.
