I'd like to see pics on the heads.
I wouldn't run more than a 219/223 on a 114 for a stock motor with boost.
thanks

Here it is in a nutshell:
Early style
03-08 Truck 5.7 05-08 Car 5.7 06-09 Car 6.1
Late (Eagle and apache)
09+ Car 5.7 09+ Truck 5.7 10+ Car 6.4 10+ Truck 6.4
You can't swap the timing covers between early and late (not that I know..)
You need to center your build around the timing cover. If you want a 6.4 then you need to source all the accessories for that. The biggest degree of interchangeability is in the cylinder heads and intakes.
If I was going to put a stock motor in one, it would be a factory stock 6.4 with just a cam and lockout kit plus a 6.1 intake manifold.
If you're talking about an early 5.7/6.1 392 stroker, that's a different animal. You buy parts based on the block/timing cover.
I started with the 6.1 due to circumstance and luck, I had to build the whole thing up by each nut and bolt. I don't advise that for anyone, it's really not cost effective. I would have been farther ahead just buying a broken 5.7 early motor from a car and pulling all the odds and ends off of that.
