Mike, Congrats on the s/o 427, I think you are doing the right thing with that motor. No one would put anything but a Hemi in a 65 Superstock Plymouth if they were building a 'replica' of one... the motor is the heart and soul of the car and if you want it to sound, feel, smell and run like the real thing... then no other option. If someone wants value and convenience they should go pick up their Z06 down at the dealership and enjoy it.
I am in the opposite situation as you... I have a gorgeous Kirkham sitting in the shop waiting for a motor. I'll be going the 482 s/o route...
