The Vic Jr. parts flow enough air to make 500hp out of the box, you can't just bolt these onto a 5.0 shortblock and get 500hp. With a very radical 306 you'd be lucky to see a n/a 500hp. I think it's gonna take more than 11:1 compression to do it too, more like 12.5:1 or more. At that point, forget streetability.
Also, you said you don't want to spend a lot of money but you want a 10 second n/a car that's streetable, if it was that easy, don't you think everyone here would have one?
I've got my doubts about getting the car down to 2100-2300 lbs without ending up with just a skeleton.
Don't want to piss on your cornflakes but I don't think you'll reach this goal.
