well she dies...

well went to fire up the old girl after a 6 or 7 month of no use and she would not crank. Dead battery. Jumped it won't start, cranks ok but just wont start. Poured a little juice in her mouth and still not start. Someone stole my gas! grrrrrr! Had to go down to the station and fill the gas can. Get back and fill her up with some more juice but still just cranks no start. Now I got a good charge on battery and it will crack for all of about 2 seconds then (for lack of better word) locks and you have to retry starting again. So now I am like wtf? She was running when I parked her. So I start at my plugs to see if for some reason I have a lose/broken/fouled plug(s). Let me break this down:

Start cyclinder:

2 = Plug covered in oil!!!!
4 = Plug covered in oil!!!!
6 = Plug covered in oil!!!!
8 = Plug covered in oil!!!!

1 = ok
3 = ok
5 = ok
7 = Plug covered in oil!!!!

So now I understand why she won't start............... so with that I want to get rid of this dam 350 that has been nothing but a Pain in my ass and go back to the 327 that was stock with her. Anyone know a good place that sells a 327 long block?? I'm up for any recommendations. Or if someone is getting rid of a 327 block long or not....
