Default what to do? add on or new engine?

hey guys i wanted to post a poll on here and see what you all think. I am wanting a bit more power out of my camaro, and have narrowed it down to 3 different choices. I already have a 305 with aftermarket intake, ignition, carb, cam, and headers. I am not looking for any crazy power numbers, just something i can depend on and have some decent power when i wanna play (350-400hp). this is mostly going to be just a fun car to cruse around in and every once in a while take it to the strip to play. i would like to spend as little as possable and at the same time get good results. so here is my question, throw a set of heads on my 305 and get around 350-360 hp for around $1000, buy a 383 stroker crate engine for around $3,300. or get an LS1 engine/trans combo (was told i can get one of these for around $2,500-$3,000 used). what do you guys think?
