Do your self a big favor right away and FORGET all about Ohio Crank.
Buy a kit from Probe, Scat or Eagle. Ohio Crank does not have a very good reputation on their QC. Cranks of theirs that I have seen personally.... Well I reground one 10/10 and refused to build the other 2 when their owners refused to fix them right.... both of them spun rods/mains in their first outing. The one I fixed is still running. Not to say Scat/Eagle/Probe can't have a bad day but Ohio Crank seems to have alot of bad days comparativley...
Flat tops in a 4.150/4.140 stroke motor will set you to 12.1SCR easily if you zero deck the block. That kind of compression will require at least 110 octane.
The second cam is the best of those 2 for a 514... You can do much better by calling a cam grinder and not Summit. My recomendation would be for you to give Mike Jones a call. He has done all my cams for the past 2 yrs (after Reed Cams closed) and I haven't had any HP or QC problems with his stuff.

Who is going to do the cyl head porting on those C8's? With 500+inches to feed your going to need some serious port work. I'd recomend you talk to the "Mad Porter" on the board here.
A lot depends on the average track depth/consistency and tire size for gear ratio recomendations.
I can tell you I'd run more converter than that even in a light truck. I'd look at 3800-4200RPM stall.
The engine is a big part of racing - but keep some $$$ to spend on your suspension. Look at what the fast guys are doing within your rules and copy them.
