I would throw any ideas of performance out and settle for a well running, issue free car.

Simplest would be to buy a blueprinted LT1 long block from Jegs, install it with a new clutch and just focus on the rest of the odds and ends once you can drive the car. Otherwise, do as Adam said, clean up block, use stock crank, I would just reuse stock rods/pistons though, then get the heads cleaned up, new springs/valves and MAYBE a baby hot cam or similar.

Simple is better sometimes.
