I'm previously a Ford guy before going Full LS. First off those heads and the short block are very nice and very capable of making big power. However, that Hydraulic cam selection is really hurting you power wise. Not only is it very small lift wise for how much those heads flow up top but also your leaving alot of RPM off the table from the small duration which in your case (Supercharged) you will want to really spin some RPM to get some big power of that smaller CI and also your have a nice manual trans, to get that car into the 8's your really going to want to spin that set-up high. I would highly advise getting in touch with Ed curtis or someone who really deals with alot of SBF's and get a nice solid roller set-up. Other than that you have a very capable combo, I could potentially see the TB being a bit on the Small side but I'm sure others would disagree.
