As a researcher I've been on teams depending on grant funding, but I've never been a PI so my experience is pretty limited, but what I do know is that you need to be prepared for quite a bit of red tape. Deadlines for action on the part of the grant awarder are more like guidelines. Good scores don't necessarily mean you'll get funded, but they are a good sign. Apply often and be very descriptive!
