as far as i know there was never any company offering an actual aftermarket casting. you can get very well built rebuilds from companies like agostino racing engines but they cost.
personally i would never buy anything that said jasper on it. i have seen the insides of their "high performance" engines that are used for teh jasper sprints, what hunks of crap. unmatched machine work and parts. i can't imagine their stock rebuilds would have any more care into them.
if you have a reliable machine shop around they can rebuild the bottom end properly for you, then you can do the rest of the assembly yourself.

AP Engineering. They did a pretty good job (for a great price) on a Forged 355 (sans crank, it's cast) with a 4 week turnaround.

There's plenty of places out there to get a motor redone: ARE, AP Engineering, Lingenfelter, Nu-Tek, Golen, Rapid Motorsports, Speed Inc., ect. ect. ect.

NO ONE however, produces an "aftermarket" block for the LT1.
