Default Engine Rebiuld...Need Suggestions...1985

I have been wanting to rebuild my engine for awhile, and I think I have kinda decided what I want to do with it. I want to have it bored out .030. For a complete rebuild, can someone give me a list of every part I will need to buy to do this? Besides boring it out, I want to replace everything else with stock replacement parts. Thanks, Zak.

Whats all involved in turning it into a 383, how much, etc?

I just want to redo it. Everything on it is original and its never been messed with. Plus its just not running right. As for the money, Im not sure. I dont want to go crazy with it.
