Default Will it last in the nines?

I am wanting to be able to run in the nines and didnt know if I could do it with the hardwear that I have. I have a built TSP 408 Iron bock, PRC L92 head heads, L76 intake, Eagle Crank, Scatt Rods with 2000 ARP bolts, Diamond Nitrous Pistons, TNT F2 kit with a 250 shot, Textrelia clutch, built trans, 3.5 in. drive shaft, Moser 12 bolt with 4.11's and True Track dif., cage and all suspension done. Should I go with Callies Compstar 4340 Forged Crankshaft and Rods or something like a Lunati set up? This is not going to be at the track all the time. I just want to know if I should beef it up anywhere. I know I could always go bigger and better, but I have very little cash. Questions and comments are welcome.

Thank you for the post. I am getting the block redone with what I posted and didnt know if they will be ok for going out every once and blue moon. I would like to know how else is running this stuff and if they have had any probs. with their set up and if so or whatever and how they would or think that it should be done.

You should be fine bro all good quality parts you got there and they should defently handle that 250 shot for a long time. I would stick with the scat rods and eagle crank also saves you a bunch of money over callies stuff and will hold up pretty much just as well. Looks like your going to have some fun times on your hands!

I would worry about the 12 bolt before that nice engine.

Just curious on why he should be worried about the 12 bolt?
Is that not the optimal rear end?
