Default 351 engine questions

I'm planning my Cobra, and looking at engine options. I called a salvage yard today and asked about a 351C, and they more or less laughed and said they never see Clevelands.

How rare are Clevelands, and what can I expect to pay for one?

Which 351Ws are better? I'm seeing SPORTSMAN, SVO, pre-82, etc. How much difference is there in blocks from the 70s vs. the 80s & 90s?

This will be a street car, and I would prefer to have good acceleration rather than high top end speed.

Thanks,
Glenn
