Default road map for my motor....need constructive opinions<---note :D

ok through some counsel with my dads racing buddy i have an idea with what i want to do with my motor here goes:

the piston rings are worn so he suggest that i just bore it .030 over to get a solid uniform cylinder wall....

with that some new/slightly used .030 over forged piston set, i plang on doing a 75-100 dry shot with this motor...
also im going to turn the crank
port my e7 heads with some 1.6 intake and 1.7 exhaust rockers...
and either port match my stock intake or pick up a cobra intake
convert to mass air and choose a good cam, either new/slightly used e-cam or any other suggestions...

then im going to get another engine block to build in the garage, prolly a 331 stroker, with some good stuff on it....hmm i got another mustang siting in the driveway and it may be of some use to me...

take the block, crank, and all new internals to a machine shop. have the block cleaned, fluxxed, plugged, new cam baerings, and alligned bored. get the new internals balance, if the crank does not need turning dont do it and that goes for all the other stuff too if it does not need it dont do it, to get the block bored .030 should only cost about 100 shells or less.
