Hi welcome to the site. Good luck on finding a car.
My only advice is take your time looking you will find a good body if you take your time. A 350 Olds would also look good in a 81-88 Cutlass also.
When building this engine don't get hung up on numbers and just build it for your application. When your talking about decent numbers like that your going to have to do upgrades to the entire drivetrain.
