Be careful with a hot big inch big block.
As Steve said, They make Crazy Torque!
Heed his words, you might be getting into Too Much of a Good Thing. No Kidding!
Save your money (And your life) and start with something a bit more reserved. (454 HO or something like that) Learn to drive it, enjoy it, then sell it and buy the Engine you mentioned. If you still want it.
I had a BBC that made 650 hp. I thought biggest is best. It wasn't worth a crap on the street, because unless you did nothing more than concentrate on what you were doing, it was way too easy for things to get way out of control. Forget altogether Driving in the rain.
Maybe Shafiroff could build you something about half that power to start with, then upgrade it as you get comfortable with it.
Good Luck!
