RE: engine rebuild

Yes you would have to upgrade your springs and other components. I would recommend new high quality shafts and a good adjustable rocker such as the roller tipped Harland Sharps. There are full roller options, but I am sure that you would not want to spend the $800 on them.
Low to mid 11's adds a little twist to the story.
First thing, you have to put money into your chassis. Cal Trac bars in back with fresh springs is in order. You can talk to them on their tech line to see what spring they recommend. Plan on running slicks, and upgrading your axle assy to meet the stress.
I would personally sell the steel crank to someone else, and get a good standard(notSCJ) crank. The weight is a handicap for your engine. I would also go with an aftermarket rod such as the Eagle. I am assuming that you're going to be running a good set of headers.
What transmission are you running?
You should talk to Kuntz and Company, or one of the engine builders for your cam selection at this point. If you are serious about such a low ET, and still be streetable, you are stepping up the amount of cash it will cost for your combo.
