Those are solid engines. Why not update it with port injection? I don't see why you need to replace the engine. Just update the torque converter with one that locks up (1982 or 83 model ?). What is the rear axle ratio?

It's a 440-3, and I haven't figured out the rear end ratio yet. I need to look it up.
I don't plan to replace the engine, just give it a good tuneup for now. A port injection swap would be fun as well, but I think the 4th speed would be a bigger result and help with noise etc overall as well.
