looking for good used engine

I have a 1965 88 Starjet convertible that the 330 needs to be rebuilt. After seeing what it would cost to rebuild this and the the trans,I thought I would ask around to see if someone has a reasonably priced engine for sale.
this car is going to be a dailey driver and i would like to make the engine have a little attitude. I thought I had one found when Coppercutlass offered up the shortblock he has but it looks like someone stepped over me on that one. Please send me a PM with details of what you have,what you would take for it and whereabouts that you are located. I have a customer who transports cars and maybe i could get him to pick up a part if he is already going in that direction. It may take a little while to get picked up but i would make a good deposit or pay for it in full if you are a somewhat longtime member ( even tho I am not) I own a shop called JB Customs in Jackson,Michigan (jbcustoms.com) This car is going to be just for me. It would be grat to put one together just for me.
Thank you Jim Corcoran

Thank you. I have just bought Coppercutlass's 362ci shortblock. This will make a good engine for this car
