Looking for an engine.

Good afternoon everyone, I am looking for a 455 Oldsmobile engine block and recommendations to a quality Olds Engine builder for my project car. I have searched the web for a while and haven't come up with much, so I thought I would ask here. Any help is appreciated. Thank you
-Jack

What type of build are you looking for? Power level? Daily driver?

Earlier 455 blocks

I live in northeast ohio I’m looking for a Oldsmobile early 455 block and I need a few other parts. I’m also looking for a machine shop near me that specializes in Oldsmobile engines
