I would just rebuild yours. His 5.0 is a direct bolt in, but running it without oil could have hurt the rods and/or crank. Then you are talking some big $$$. But your budget is going to hurt. Any machining to the block is going to cost. Then if you want to run some kind of forced induction, you might as well buy forged pistons and rods. Those are costly too. A decent set of heads will burn 40% of your budget, but those can be bolted on at a later date. Unless you plan to buy a large blower you can run with the stock style replacements. Otherwise, lower your compression ratio.
p.s. Stay away from the hypercrap pistons. Your motor came stock with forged pistons, why make it cheaper?
