just not worth it...i can tell you that the reserve is set at about 2000 probably, and to do a v8 swap? youd still need a FI v8(unless you wanna deal with cutting the cowl for a carb or paying more for parts to fit under it) and the rest of the v8 setup, you can find 93+ z28's for 3k needing just minor body work. I myself would consider a 4th gen v6-v8 swap BUT i have many of the parts needed plus i have several years experience working on these cars knowing what will fit what, and unless you have unlimited money that does make a big difference, and finally i would never pay more than $500 for a 4th gen v6 project car, and yes they can be found with a little effort. i just located a 98 v6 (at my pyhsical therapy office)that was in a front and rear accident which i want to strip for parts, and i'll probably pay about 500 if i pick it up. My advice, stick with your 3rd gen and learn as much as you can then move up in time, one project at a time.
