Default Square body addiction

I have a gen III 5.3 that I'm going to put in my c10. The plan is to get it in and drive it until I have all the parts to go twins. It already has a th400/2.73s/31" tire. I want to be over 600hp on pump gas as a dd and be able to put good fuel in a secondary tank and turn it up for the track. I'm not building a race car just want a dependable but quick truck. Quick being low 10s. I've never done any ls performance stuff or swaps so this is all new to me. I'm also on a real tight budget. Any help will be appreciated.

I remember being young, full of fast car dreams and little funds.

I'm 38 married with 4 children. No dreams here. Reality. I've done good so far with my builds. I just can't afford to do like some and throw money at it. The ones built that way usually aren't the fastest anyway.
