www.TAPerformance.com should be your first stop for 300 parts.
you can check with Rover suppliers for a lot of dress up stuff, chrome valve covers and the like.
the fearsome turbo v6's of the mid-80's Grand Nationals are actually based on this block (i think your bores are .05" narrower). the stock v6 block has been known to hold up to 1000hp levels. as a 2v engine is going to be one of the lower compression setups, turbo would probably be your best bet for performance build up on this. if you're going to swap in forged pistons the existing CR is meaningless ... Buick tended to control CR with piston dish.
try putting it on a scale. you might be pleasantly surprised by how light it is. the Buick 350 (which is a tall deck version of this block) weighs in around 450 lbs ... as compared to a Chevy 350 which is a little under 600.
