Help spec'ing out a new small block

And this is why I'm glad I started this discussion. Starting to add up what it's going to take to build this thing and finding a used engine might be the way to go IF a different combo is what I decide to do. I keep saying it and will say it again.... there's always the option to throw a better flowing set of heads on my short block. lol
The parts that are being throw at you are not necessarily at all. Way overkill to run want you said you wanted to run.
My car isn’t fast but it does run well into the 9’s on a budget. If you knew want specs my engine had you would laugh. Only thing new is the cam. Everything else I bought used.

You don’t need a Ritter or R3 block.
