RE: 351w stroked to 427
going that far may not be a good idea.And it definately wont last too long.
If i were you id go no farther than a 393.
Going farther in my opinion is a waste of parts since its not going to last very long.

i do not understand the waste becuase the cylinders do not need to bored more than .30 and the stroker crank is std,std for a 351w, pistons are not flycut. is the block not strong enough to handle the hp? what parts willl not last that long. i have looked at 393 kits they are also excelent power makers but the 427 is a little better and not very much more. down fall on a 427 is no nitrous.

Maybe im just paranoid.But i like to be safe rather than sorry.
I think though as long as you didnt go machining the block to the max that you may be alright.But to be honest i would just get a 427 if you want a 427.
500 hp on a 351 is like a walk in the park its not **** for it to handle.Throwing nitrous in the mix is a whole new ball game though.

if your going to stroke the 351 out that far. find a 'R' block since theyre a stronger casting. and big cubing a small block isnt that bad of an idea you can get some serious gains for this setup. [take a look at the LS1 427 it started out as a 346 and look at it now. produces some serious numbers up around 700s]
back to the stroker if you go that large make sure you get lightweight parts so it revs quicker and itll have less stress since itll have less rotating mass
