If you are on a budget then I would vote against porting your head and buying cams.

Run the stock rods, stock pistons and upgrade your rod bolts to ARP and call it a day. If you plan to build the motor and reach for 400whp+ then you can start thinking about cams/p&p.

The last thing we need is a 16yr old with 350hp and not much money. Is this a DD or for race? If for DD, Suggest doing what EJ1ontheHorizon said and work with your stock rods/pistons and shoot for 250-300whp before you hit a wall. use the money you save for brake/clutch upgrades and for rainy day in case **** breaks.
