I need input on a gen 2 Hemi build

I am going to build/buy a gen 2 hemi this winter and am looking for ideas. I am looking for a combination to run 11 teens at 3700# so I can add some weight to run 11:50 in the heat I am starting from zero I have no Heni parts at all to start with would like to do it through the exhaust 3in TTi is on the car now let me know what you guys think this will be a street(very limited) strip more strip then street

Sounds exactly what I accomplished. My 71 GTX weighed 4100 with me, but ran 10.80's. I used a 1999 472 block, 10.75 to 1. 650 solid roller. Indy-3 intake with a Dominator. I used the 440 TTI exhaust and bolted right up to the Hemi TTI headers. Mildly ported Mopar aluminum heads.

To get where you want to go I prefer the pump gas flat tappet 528. Ray Barton has built plenty of them. Up to 800 hp. Let them guide you thru your build.

Since your Deleware and close to Barton's shop I would just have him build you a motor and you can go watch it run on the dyno.
It won't take much of a hemi to reach your goal.
I've had many motors built over the years for cars and motor cycles. Ray was the first engine builder that didn't over promise and under deliver on the horsepower. I wanted 800 hp and the motor made 845 hp.

As an FYI, his dyno will show hp numbers that are about 50 less than other engine dynos. So you would probably be showing around 900 hp on other dynos.
