351M= 
inarguabally the worst engine next to the aluminum block vega....
That C6 will bolt to a 429 460 a much better carbureated engine.
The 302 roller will be more efficent but require a lot of electronics to get thing working.

Do you have all the wiring for the 302? As much of a bad wrap as electronics have, they are not all the that bad, the engines are much more efficiant and run better. If you have the wiring or could get the wiring for cheap I would choose the 302. I am a little biased as I installed a 4.6L MOD motor in my old truck. It is really not hard to install the electronic engine in our old pickups.
The 351M is good for only a hand full of things, one being tied to the end of a chain and used as a boat anchor.
If you are set on a carb engine find something other than the 351M or 400 for that matter.
