These are very common in junk yards. That would be the first place I'd look. A reputable junk yard should warranty the block to be free from cracks and give a clean 0.030" overbore. The best way to do this is probably to have the machine shop get one for you.
If you haven't bought the pistons & rings, this might be a good excuse to switch to a 350 block/bore (giving you a 383 after being stroked). The net cost will be about the same, but you'll have more piston options.
