I found a 312 block with the crank and the rods all together.

I have cut down a 312 crank before to 292 main size, but is there any really good reason to use the 312 block, throwing all the internals back in, or should I just go with a C2AE block I have laying around (provided its good, of course)?

I am looking more for performance with this particular engine this time. And would be considering a blower set up for the future.
