I Need Help building a turbo tpi daily driver

I just bought a 1988 camaro car has a 5.7 tpi 350 (73,000 miles)with a single t3/t4 turbo. I want to build a fun, reliable, Daily Driver I'm planning on rebuilding the engine sometime this month. Any suggestions for cam, lifters, intake, suspension, etc. (Keeping daily driver in mind) also planning on doing a manual transmission swap, any suggestions for transmission choice appreciated. If you've built a turbo tpi daily driver help me out ?

I couldn't imagine anybody answering your question without your power goal and a very descriptive definition of your idea of a daily driver.

My definition of a daily driver would never allow any firebird/camaro.

To me a daily driver would be a 15 min freeway drive to work, freeway driving, running errands in the city stop and go. As for power I'm not sure I've seen some turbo tpi push past 400hp so somewhere around there. I'm an offroad truck guy, so I don't have much knowledge in this, just looking for some help on where to start off. Thanks for replying, feel free to ask away.
