Well, the clearer story is this; I want about 700 hp at the rear wheels. I'm told that I'll lose about 15% in the driveline (T56 and a Ford 9"). I will have access to an engine dyno.

It's been suggested that my biggest concern is internal pressures, thus the LSX block and it's extra head stud. Obviously all forged stuff in the bottom end. Is this valid?

What else am I missing here?

I don't expect to regularly run the engine at high boost levels. This car won't be a regular racer or autocrosser, just a street car that occasionally hits the track...
