Default 92 trans swap or 91 engine swap help me out

Wats up everyone i am looking at two different camaros right now. the first

92 z28 with a lt1 motor dropped in about a year ago with an auto trans

and

91 rs with the 305 standard 5 speed

now i want to know is which would be better to do a transmission swap on the 92 or an engine swap to a crate 350 engine on the 91 camaro?

i want a standard v8 and i know the 305 engine isnt to strong but i know i could put some parts from the 350 on it. so which do u think i would be better off doing

What 350 parts do plan on putting on the 305? If you are looking at swaps I would pick the car that is in the best condition and go from there....probobly the z28.

You need to set a goal for both cars and figure out the purpose for them. If the rs is just for looks and a daily driver than leave it alone. Its also best to worry about one project at a time. Dont overwhelm yourself or your wallet.
