Throw your old motor on a stand in your garage or somewhere and take your time to diagnois it and re-build it for the spring/summer. 
 
I know that is easier said then done though cause that involves a lot of patience, time and money.  
 
I think it all kinda comes down to how much you really love your car.

 i think nick pretty has it with what he said. find a cheap stocker toss it in there put your engine on a stand and tear it down find out what happen and either rebuilt what you have or built a stroker. thats your best best i think. this way you can take your time and get it done right cause you'll still have your car but at the same time working on a nice motor. 
just make sure you check all the obvious things first before you rip out the motor. good luck with it
