Have you considered building one yourself? It's really not that difficult if you do a little reading. You can get a 351 from a junkyard for under $500.00 and rebuild it with quality machine work & parts for about $2,000.00 to $4,000.00 depending on how extravagant you want to be. Another $300.00 in basic tools and you've got the satisfaction of knowing exactly whats in it and being able to tell everyone you built it yourself. If you find a good machine shop in your area they'll very likely give you good advice on the assembly if you use them for your machine work.
I'm almost done with a 428 FE build and including all the accessories I'll have less than $4,000.00 into it. That's using top shelf parts where necessary and stock parts where they'll do fine.
