Newbie Building a Ford Maverick

Hello, I have this old Ford Maverick that I want to turn into a NHRA stocker. Have raced for years in ET classes but now I want to go slower (don't know why) in Stock Eliminator. The class for the car will be P/SA. Before I get started and believe me I am new at this game, what kind of tips would you share with me. Who does a good job on heads, what gear ratio should I consider ( I have an 8 inch differential; is it worth building) Is there anyone who has put a Maverick/Comet together that can get me pointed in the right direction. Hey thanks in advance, Hope to be on the track soon.
