Post 347 vs 351

I am thinking about swapping out my 302 for a 347 or 351w. If I go with the 351w I will eventually but a stroker kit into it. If I go with the 347 I will leave it alone.

I have a few questions.

If I get a 351w I know I will have to get a new distributor, oil pan, ac bracket, headers, and flywheel.
What else will I need to get and how much is each part going to cost me?
Can I get a distributor out of a used car and if so what kind; the car will be carbureted?
What other used parts can I get if I can find them that would work?
Do you think I will be better off getting the 347 or going with the 351?
There is a place here in town that builds 347 strokers with any compression ratio for 2000.00 and I have heard good things about them.
