+1 on the 427

With a Man O' War block it should be reliable enough and with the big cubes you could go with a mild enough combo to be very streetable and wicked fast if you match the components

Im thinking of doin a dart block 4.125 bore stroker I want it to rev. FAST!! and make huge torque what stroke will be better 4.000 or a 4.100? I know if i went with a 302 block i would use a 3.250 stroke not a 3.400. Im think the 4.000 mite be what i want but a 4.100 will give more torque correct? and what will be a good comp. ratio for 91 pump gas and full timing? thank you!
