Again, just my opion, the 350 OLDS and T-350 is a better bet. You will be very happy with the combo. You can use the '64 valve covers and you have to use the '64 water pump. At first glance you would not know the diff. The exhaust manifolds are the same. The drive shaft is the same. A nice dual exhaust sys. of 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 pipes and I like dyno-max muffs and you will have a sweet ride. It will still looks bone stock.
Now there is nothing wrong with 330. Just harder to get parts for the rebuild. You have to special order the cam and pistons will be only cast stock replacements. If you can find '65 - 67 400 cid OLDS pistons you can bore it to 340 cid. I would replace the heads because of the rocker arm set up. They are '64 only. I don't know of anyone having rebuilt rocker arm set up.
So for me cubic inches is the way to go. May be the cheaper way to go. Maybe a good used '68 - 76 350 OLDS and trans. Drop it in and put all your stuff back on and away you go.
