Default Ford 427 smallblock?

I read about a stroker kit for a 351w that nets 427 Ci. I was wondering if the 351w could swap for a 5.0L ( 305w) in a '94 GT fairly easily. The idea of a ford motor 427 is too exciting to describe, the price is a bit steep on the motor but they claim you can make a lot of hp especially since it will take boost, juice or what have you.

It should definitely fit as the '95 Cobra R came with a 351W.

Jeg's sells the motor you're talking about...

And I think it was Car Craft that just did an article about the 427. Something like 550 hp

so a 351w will fit, great. any idea about a weight difference or do you think itll be negligable?

I think it was Hot Rod, but I checked out the homepage of the company they got the motor through and there are a few different kits you can buy, each rated for different HP. Id love to throw a blower in to a 427 with a big shot of N2O in the back just in case you meet something really fast.

oh can you imagine the look on a Ford GT or C6 Z06 drivers face when a 94 "cobra" walks away from them. makes me smile!

the 351w is 100lbs heavier than a 302 but u can get aluminum heads radiator and a k-member and the weight difference would be nothing to worry about but ur wanting to do the same thing i want to do so good luck
