Dillin..
Take a look at Pauls 460 build (my old motor that Rob spec'd for me 5ish years ago)
Stock block .030 over decked .010
Stock crank and rods
stock replacement .030 pistons since I busted a couple of mine
-I was using speedpro hypers for about 9.3-4:1 comp
D3 heads decked .010. Mild port work on the exhaust side.
Comp Cams x4262h cam with 927-16 springs 7* locks and retainers
Stealth intake with 1" spacer and a Holley 750 vac secondary.
Duraspark distributor
1 3/4 primary headers.
chrome valve covers
Desktop dyno (yeah I know its never right) said the motor made something like 390hp at 4500rpm and 500tq at like 2500rpm. I really liked that motor and it was reliable - best of all I got about 12mpg with 4.56s and 38.5s when I kept my foot out of the secondaries for minutes at a time.
I think Paul is enjoying it also.

If you want to know about price and what needs done with 460's contact Reincarnation high performance. That guy knows 460's and can do some good work on heads. Reccomended by alot of guys on 460 forum. Stock bottom end can handle the power.
I have a simular build to what alpha stated. Stock bottom, KB pistons .030, lunati cam that was slightly modded, Weiand stealth, Holley 750 ( that might change though) L&L longtubes, Ported D3's(exhaust and intake), Duraspark ignition, Re-curved dizzy. Should be real reliable and I think I'm only in about 2 grand. But I havn't added everything up and I already had the Holley and L&L's. Assembled Heads, Cam, Lifters and Dizzy came from Scott at Reincarnation.
