Default blown motor....now lookiing to build a 383 or 408

blew my ls1 motor and now looking to rebuild it this winter with either a 383 or 408. I Want to part it together as cheap as possible. So what are the main components i would need if my old block isnt scrap. I know i need stuff like arp studs and a new crank and pistons but what are some other things i should look into for motor longevity. Like ported oil pump, and other small assmebly parts.

check out the crank in the blown motor, maybe it could be offset ground to save some money.
