Big Runner Intake Base ie ported Edelbrock or AS&M.
Large Intake Runners ie SLP, AS&M, Edelbrock.
OR Holley Stealth Ram
Injectors around 32 lbs
Camshaft around 218/224* with high lift
Decent Aluminum Heads (take your pick)
About $2500-$3000 for the top end and you can use your own original shortblock (if it's in decent condition)
Headers (shorties are easier)
catback system....
$500
Now ya have to learn how to burn chips!!!!
No one said it was cheap!

The base, runners at least, and perhaps the plenum.
There's the HSR, lots of options.
The cam is a personal thing, nothing to suggest but more the mild but less than aggressive. Probably something that hits at 2500-5500. Depends on what the owner wants. I like a little more aggressive than most people. Mine is 240/246 with .602 lift. (it's a 427) I call that easily streetable.
Rockers? Aluminum is going away and many of the Chro-mo ones are popular now. Something like the Comp Pro Mags.
Still say don't need heads....or mild port on the stockers. There's 100s of dollars not needed to be spent.
