Trying to stay under $2k?
If it were me, I'd hit the local Pull-A-Part with a wire brush, a magnifying glass, straight edge, and a dial caliper. Try to find a set of clean, straight heads with no cracks. Rebuild 'em yourself, but be sure and replace the valvesprings. Get a cheap stock crank with good, stock journals. There's no shame in running a stock-stroke 350.
Use a brand name rebuild kit and bearings from RockAuto/eBay/whatever.
If you have the provisions for a roller cam, roller cam it. You're insisting on Comp Cams? Fair enough. Call 'em and tell 'em about your heads and induction setup and they'll get you the best cam.
You'd be at about $500 with a fresh motor and a nice power increase. If you decide to use Vortec heads, budget about $300 more for a Summit intake with a TBI adapter.
First two mistakes. 1. "Biggest possible" cams don't make usable power in a heavy vehicle." after head work biggest possible cam to run on 193/TBI heads"
More wasted money. Nothing wrong with the OEM cast crank for your application.Looking into ordering just a summit/jegs new forged crank.
Wasted effort.The entire idea of this build is we want as much as possible go for as little as possible dough and do 80% D.I.Y
And i mean porting block galleys,
Wasted effort on TBI heads.hand port heads, having a local guy who used to run a performance shop in Bakersfield CA but moved back home to KS do a valve job on them.
First two mistakes. 1. "Biggest possible" cams don't make usable power in a heavy vehicle.
2. Every dime you drop on TBI heads is money you'll never get back. For the dough you're wasting on those heads, you could get Vortec heads and be WAY farther "ahead".

You might wanna add high flow oil pump and an oil pan that holds more oil. Windage tray should also help keep the going longer. Are you trying drag race, road race? It will help to figure out parts to suggest.

TBI heads are are literally called "Swirl-Port" The Swirl the air like small tornadoes and make GREAT bottom-end torque...
This is meant to be done with STOCK everything, minus the toast crank in this exception because well its JUNK mains bearings are toast if you would have watched the video i clearly left in previous message.
