I'm slowly but surely doing that very thing myself! I need to get the rods, and have the machine shop put the pistons on them, and I'll be putting the shortblock together.

I would really like to get ahold of a set of those awesome looking valve covers that they had on them though!

I'm budgeting about $3000 for all original GM parts, and machine work on a '98 truck 4-bolt main block that I paid $150 for.

Good luck!
