Only plus to this is the 350/5.7 is about the cheapest most plentiful used engine out there. And, I don't think the older GM's would be as hard to pull as many newer setups.
That SBC engine holds up pretty well, but I briefly had a "Pontiac" (rebadged Chevy-something) with the 307 Small Block Chevy and it was tired.
