It all depends on your usage and the level of your mechanical ability. The path I'm taking light chassis foremost. The engine will be a roller 96 block that the level of machine work will depend on the damage I find from a broken piston. the rotating assembly will be a 3.85 stroker which at 30 over produces a 392 composed of rebuilt and beam polished 351 rods, and 302 forged pistons. The heads will probably be Twisted wedge CNC 205s and use a fairly aggressive cam. This should result in around 500+ hp and I assure you I will have nowhere near 7k in it. I personally would not go bigger than this with a 351 since you start to get into expensive machine work and the rod/stroke ratio degenerates.
