If I where you I would buy the 403 and then either tear down the 350 or put the 455 back together at a leasuirly pace. A "9" 307 has a little bit of power but I think the 403 is a better choice

If you use the 403, check the timing chain before installing, as they start going bad at about 80k - if it's been sitting, the water pump bearing seal usually dries out, too.
Both easier to do before installing.
