This is not going to be cheap if you want to do it right. You will need the machine shop to:
recondition the rods
recondition/polish the crank
hot tank block
install cam bearings
install freeze plugs
possible need for align hone
possible need for .030 overbore
And if your worried about cost, new heads are NOT going to be an option
