If you are satisfied with the performance and not intrested in any racing(except for the ocassional stop light show off...come on we all do it now and then) or HiPo street setups then stay with the 352 and if its still safe for a rebuild and is an original block for that car then I would say rebuild with a reputable( I mean VERY reputable) machine shop. P.A.W. ,Performance Automotive Warehouse, has super stock master rebuild kits (crank, rods,pistons,bearings,rings, oil pump, cam, lifters,timing chain/gears, and gaskets) for $882. For a small additional fee they will custom balance the rotating mass and set you up with molly rings and a hotter cam. If the engine block is not rebuild material the check these guys for a good long or short block. engineexchange.com. NAPA supposedly still carrys well built, I mean rebuilt, engines for stockers. Friends and family of mine have had good experiences with NAPA engines and terriable ones with Discount Auto Parts engines. Not sur about Autozone( if their anything like their water pumps then RUN THE OTHER WAY!). My uncle got a 305 chevy rebuilt for his '85 GMC pickup from discount auto and it had METAL SHAVINGS AROUND THE CRANKSHAFT! Regardless of how you go WATCHOUT cause their are some crooks in the engine business who do some half @$$ed work.
