Question 351W Rebuild

Ok, I was going to get the Cleveland, but decided on a Windsor to build up for my Mustang. I have a 302 in there now, which has so much money put into it. It's a pure race car. Everything has been stripped out (Still street legal!), never took it to the track because of roll bars and chutes. Pops willies when the clutch is popped (Slicks are warmed up too). I'm guessing high 10's low 11's? Has stock gearing and everything. So what i'm working at here is getting more power and fast times by going with a 351W. My question is, what should I get for this block? I didn't build my 302, I bought the car done and traded my black 89 for it. I'm getting the 351 taken in today to get it checked for cracks, and cleaned up. I am going to start ordering the parts for it. Never rebuilt a engine, my dad has, so we are doing this as a project. It's being bored 30ths over. I want to hook up a nitrious kit (150 shot), whihc probably will never be used. But I want to build the motor with that in mind. I want lots of raw horsepower without having to juice it. What kind of cam, heads, crack, lifters, pistons, intake, carb size, etc should I get? Anyone have a idea? I have a high performance richmond racing transmission too, 5speed. Will this bolt up just fine to the 351 or are their going to be some changes involved? Will that 351 with some big heads fit in my car? I have full length headers, which the left side comes pretty close to the side of the car as it is. I get bigger heads, I might run into a bit of a problem there. But I want as much horsepower as I can get out of this block. I want to stay street legal too so I can cause terror on the streets. Thanks!
