Do you plan on driving the car a ton? By a ton I mean 200-300 passes a year.

How soon do you think you will make all that happen?

And Good Luck to you I would be happy too if I had Mikes old Eheads!

200-300 passes a year, I couldn't afford racing that much let alone not doing anything else in the summer (Camping, etc.). Back in my younger days going to Detroit Dragway racing sometimes 3 times a week. Racing was maybe 50 bucks with entry, gas and beer!

The last few years I have not raced all that much. Job situation was not the best. Finally have a good job like I used to always have. But from about 2002 for the next dozen years I raced 100-150 passes a year. I have 40+ firsts and second place trophy's in that time.
I plan on racing about that amount.
I have a track nearby (Samoa Drag Strip) that is at seas level, on a beach, surrounded on 3 sides by ocean, 65 deg in the summer. Track was re paved a few years back. Good track for going fast..
It will take me a good year at least to put it all together. Dont have the block yet. Stallion was trying to sell me his MR1A a few years back, but now he wants to run it. Just when I finally had the money! I have the heads, complete with T&D and pushrods and some billet steel rods. maybe a good used IA2-MR1 will come up, but it seems they are scarce.
My idea is to try and make a 900HP on CA pump gas. Something that does not need a ton a maintenance. Mike says I could make 850 with a flat tappet, so I see no reason a good size roller wont get me 900, maybe more. real question is the intake. Have a Victor but Mike say it will choke the heads. Dont think much of the BOP, He likes the Tiger but some say it will be hard to fit. Then there is the BBC 2x4 tunnel ram H&M will make fit a Pontiac for 1600$. I run Hooker 2" SCs on my 455 HO so I will run those to start.
Might run a 850 on it and try and ET around 10 flat and go up from there. Just keep putting more carb to it(have a pile of them) get thrown back in the seat, when that stops scaring you give it more carb, more cam until I am scared again. The car has a rear end and suspension that can handle 1600HP so I just want to play it smart and have fun.
