Engine Shopping

[lycominghunter]

Well, I'm not too proud of this, but I am in the market for a new motor. I just bought a k20 with a 350 and sm465 the other week and havent gotten to look at it much because I'm at school. Drove it up to my mechanic to get it inspected and to get a good professional opinion and...its been running on 7 cylinders, has a burnt valve and messed up rings. I knew something was wrong cuz it was droppin a lot of oil but.... SO now I'm in the market for a new crate engine. I want to stick with a 350 and I'm wondering which one you all would get. I'm looking at the GM and Edelbrock crate engines. Any other suggestions on what engine you would put in? Thanks
