455 rebuild sugestions

Got a 455 block sitting around, will be going to the shop next week for cleaning and such..

Just wanted some opinions, i want to build it a bit bigger then stock but not anything to insane just some good quality horse power so i was looking for sugestions along the lines of engine rebuild kits. Everything i would need to get this 455 roaring!

thanks

Even with that you'll still spend 5K or better if you want it to live and have the performance you're looking for.

im not worried about money, seeing as im going o drag this project out for a couple of years, if i would id do it all at once but i simply just cant afford that.. Thats why id like to find some kind of decent rebuild kit thats going to give me some power, there isent anyone who makes a kit?
