-obviously new coolant seals and gaskets, and possibly oil control rings
-spec housings and possibly get replacements or get them resurfaced

I forgot I have my engine from 3 years ago that I still haven't torn down yet. I'm going to break into that to see if there is anything I can use on this build.

Any suggestions from you guys? What new parts should I get?
Eric,

My suggestion to you would be: if the the other engine you have has minimal useable parts, buy a new engine from ray. The price break you get on buying the whole engine new instead of buying it part by part, is huge. Also, I don't care what anyone else says, RA seals are junk, ESPECIALLY the 3mm super seals. I DO NOT recommend them at all.
