But in the end, we will see how it shakes out. This may very well end up being a race gas mix depending on what we see on the dyno and at the track. That being said, AI and my builder spec'd the cam, etc for 93 octane.
.....ill hit u up again lata today

I hear ya and I wanted to run on 93 with my 12.4:1 which it does, but I always run a mix with 100 to be safe. I just don't trust getting good fuel all the time.

Mid 10s should be cake with your combo. Hell, once its dialed in I would be going for rock bottom 10s/high 9's with that setup...

I don't want to be over confident, but I think this setup will surprise a lot of people once we dial it in.

Updated the OP with new pictures and converter information.
We also made a change on the head gasket from the GM .029 Impala gasket to a Cometic .030 gasket so we will be pulling the heads off this weekend to get that installed. Then we will be putting the intake manifold, throttle body, headers, plugs, wires, etc on the engine.
