First trans am!!

The T.A has had body work done, above the wheels on both sides (got it like that) but a magnet still sticks to it so im goin back that Rare Purple. The Dash is out of an 02'. Motor an Tranny (T56 Borg Warner) are out of car but hooked together. Motor Has Been Completely over Hauled. block was Honed an Hot Tanked. Crank was turned an polished. New Stock Cam, New Valves, Lifters, Springs, Push Rods an Gaskets. AfterMarket Flywheel and Stage 2 clutch. Heads Ported and Polished, Eldebroke Headers, Punched Cat an Straight Silver Line Exhaust. COMPLETELY CLEANED AN REBUILT, noddy mile on this thing!!!! To complete the Deal I have an extra block, oil pan, pistons, rods, mains an More. I know a lot of People Say why trade an Running Car of that Caliber for a "Project" essentially... But I see the cup as half full!!! I'm boring an stroking my extra block an purchusing pistons as soon as this snow storm passes....NO DELAYING AT ll!!! I plan on getting with LLoyd Elliot for head/cam packages-I've been reading on here he has pretty good product/service & results for a reasonable price. Instead of buyin an programmer i'm jus having it tuned from a LapTop (got guys down here that Specialize in tuning). I mean I have a plan for now an long term goal for what I want( that bein a Mid 11 in 1/4 Strip that can b used for a daily driver) Is there anyone who can give me any advise how to get there? I'm not displaced about prices but I'm Certainly not against saving sum bucks every now an then, LOL!! These thing have sooooo many more CPU components than my "Ol Skool" so I'm kinda green. All Advise helps-Thanks!!!!!!
