Run good electronics & flow through some 1 & 7/8" or 2" quality headers... 450-500Hp & revs like a mouse.
BTW: Welcome to the forum!!! Scooter
that would be a 427, as I'm sure you already know. I'm with Charlie.If you are gonna stack 200lbs on the nose of the car might as well get the full benefit and stick a 454 in it.
