If you have made a new thread for this, post it so we can go there instead of commenting on the OP's thread.
First off you seem to have no plan…what is your end result?
Anyone that has been around BBCs for any length of time know 049/781s will make very reliable 500+hp on 9:1 with very minor port/blend work. Are you looking for more HP?
Do you have an automatic trans? How big is your stall? Rear gears?
And your cam choice is really small.
What is your budget? You should be planning at least 2500 dollars as a bare minimum.
Post your build thread link and we can comment there, and give you plenty of ideas.
