Re: Opinions
Get a used block. Send it to a machine shop. When you get it back it should look almost brand new and a lot cheaper than buying a brand new block from gm. Same power.
Good combo, What about a cam? If your boosting it I would stay away from the performer intake. Go with something like a victor, Or super victor. Something high flow and single plane.
If you are getting all new valvetrain, stay solid roller. Period.
What kind of boost are you planning for turbo, procharged, roots?

Re: Opinions
A better idea is to build a NA bottom end, and then build a forced induction one when you're ready.
