BBC Build and Questions.

My 454 bbc locked up a main bearing, its sat for the last few months in the truck in the driveway and now i have decided to do something with it. Im looking for some advice as this will be my first bbc build.

MOTOR:
454 1975 pickup
177 weiand blower
750 edelbrock


TRANS
Th350 2200 stall

REAR 4:11 gears posi rear



Thats what i am starting with following this sentence i am gonna type what I think i might buy. I am looking for good or bad critism, ideas, suggestions. Now i am tryin to keep this built below 3,000 to 3,500

MOTOR
thinking about these heads:

This bottom end:

That would put me at a 8.4 to 1 CR +/- a few so i should be good with the blower.

Need your help with the CAM, HEADERS,ROLLER ROCKERS,and anything else i might have forgetten.

Thanks for your help in advance.
