Damm - Craig, would that beast even fit between the fenders? I definitely agree the ultimate setup would start with an alloy 385 based block. Dry sump?

Fastd, that engine with aluminium block and heads wouldn't make the car nose-heavy. Iron block 427 cars are pretty evenly balanced front to rear as it is. It could possibly even end up with a small rear weight bias.
