Default starting pricing...need suggestions/help

well i put this in the wrong area last time and it got deleted...so i gotta repost it.
sorry mods!!

but im starting to price together my plans for the winter.
as of now im looking for a 331 stroker kit that would come with everything i need...all forged also. anyone got any websites?
and what heads would you guys recomend for this application. i was thinking afr or rhs but neither of them come assembled,
and i dont konw where to start when assembling heads.
for the rest of the top end i was thinking edelbrock intake and custom ground cam.
would these all work well with each other?
and what size maf would work best...and how big injectors/pump would be needed?
did i miss anything?

sorry for all the questions but i want to try and get this all put together so i can come up with a total for parts.
thanks everyone!

try coast highperformance coasthigh.com They have a big selection of stroker kits. This is what i have and have had no problems. U can also try dss racing they are good too. But i think there is a guy on here that sells kits for cheap not sure of the quality though.

24 # should be ok maybe 32's if you plan on a blowertry looking at trick flow heads, try and stick with alike parts, like if your gunna go with a trick flow intake manifold, go with trick flow heads, ect... 75 mm throttle bodie and maf would be good, 90 maf would be good if your gunna blow.

thanks for the help. yeah i heard about the guy on here who sells them and im hoping he chimes in.
but im trying to stay away from trickflow...only because people say they dont flow as well as the other heads.
ill be sure to look at those websites tho.
and i was gonna throw a blower on it next year but i think you need a lower compression ratio for it and it wouldnt be worth changing everything.
i want to do the rebuild first also because i dont want to have to worry about blowing the motor.
