Building a 306 few questions


ok i have come to a decision for what i am building and got a few questions..
here is what i have as far as the motor at the time:
tfs upper and lower
edlbrk 70mm tb
255lph pump 30lb injectors fuel rails and regulator
pulleys
custom cam
bbk headers w/catless h pipe, flowmasters
cai
crane rr's and ignition box
and maybe i forgeting things

i am wanting to run a supercharger as much boost as safe.

questions:
can i use stock crank and rods or just crank.
what pistons are good with what i am doing?
what heads are good (cc)
and should i get block bored 4.030 or like 4.0307 to allow lots of boost?

The stock crank, rods and pistons will live longer than the stock block will. I wouldn't worry about boring it. You are wasting your money there unless the cylinders are damaged. Boring an engine will give you zero horsepower. Have it tuned by a reputable shop and keep the rpm down. 500-550 rwhp is about the safe max.
