3.4 Stroker Kit and 84 Chevette Rear end

Hi - I bought a 1984 Chevette with a solid body and floor boards (very rare here in Michigan). It has the stock 1.6LT in it, the only option is the automatic tranny (has manual steering and manual breaks). I have a 2.8 that has been bored out to a 3.1 (just have to buy the pistons and valves). I was wondering about the 3.4 stroker crank - are they a worth while upgrade since I have to buy a new crank anyway (other then to say that I have a stroker). Where can I find one (with in a reasonable price, I'm a teacher and college student working on my masters degree)? I want to go all mechinical so its going to have a carb, and keeping the manual steering and breaks. I have a rebuild 700R4 so I can take advantage of the overdrive :-D

Antoher question is will the rear end hold. I've been told that it will hold a stock 350 (if you don't race all the time). If so I shouldn't have a problem with at 3.1/3.4 right?

Thanks
Richard
