You got good advice already but here's my 2cents. I dont know how wild you want to go, or how stock you want to keep it. Or how much money your spending. If you're just freshing up the block kepp those bags handy(freezer bags easier to write on) If you're boreing the block, have it honed and decked while it's there. Those old blocks are usually off by quite a bit. The ARP bolts are the way to go. Things start to get pricey, so depending on how big a cam you're going to run you can save some $$$ Ir it's something mild like a Crane fireball, Comp Cam 270* advertised. for example you wont need the strongest pushrods money can buy, or Titanium vavles. Go with ARP rod(not the Nascar wave locs), head bolts and Main studs. You probably wont need the ARP stuff for the accessories. The difference between high performance and rall out race stuff might only be $25 or $50 but it starts to add up. Spend the money now on the Machine work, block/heads, and in the short block. You can always add high rise manifolds and big carbs later when you get more $$$. Good luck
