Crate engines will cost a ton (min $5K). A much cheaper solution would be to find a running P350 someone took out of their car when moving up in engine sixe and get it cheap. I've seen running engines with the transmission as well for around $500-$1000 depending on what year you want/mileage.
If I was going to the trouble of pulling the L6 I would ditch the powerglide while I had the car off the road and switch over to a TH350.
