Right. The first place found a company that sells reman engines for the 350 for ~$10k and then labor was quoted at $2,800 + an additional potential $500 in misc. parts + tax would be just under $15k. My concern is that they would do all of that and then realize that it needs some other things to actually get it running and the cost would just continue to skyrocket after that. I am heading towards selling it as-is and cutting my losses as I would rather not spend the money just to continue driving a car I can't trust.
