theres a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG difference between a 9 second and a 12 second car. Let us know what your looking for and than help can be given.
And by the way, there are many companies out there who make turbo/sc systems for carb'd cars.

Well, if you dont mind me asking, whats the fastest car you have been in? Just asking because alot of people really dont realize how fast a 11-12 second car really is. And the difference in money between a 12 sec and 9 second car is going to be HUGE difference.
First of all, if its a drag car, start on the basics and go wild (if you have the $$$). Full tubular suspension, drag shocks/struts, slicks & skinnies, manual steering, built C4 maybe, remove back seats & other interior panels (not sure if you want to go that far), etc.
If I were you, I would do a nice NA build off a 351w based block.

And if you do want to w a turbo setup, B&G is just one of the companies I know will do a setup like that (quick google search). Im sure most big companies sell carb'd kits, even if they dont advertise them, call them. AND if they DONT sell them, Im sure they can do something for you or point you in the right direction.

good, you have a really good starting foundation. Take it out, stroke that b*tch and throw some monster heads & a nasty cam...
If you have "real" money to throw into this, there are sooooooooo many options.
