I'll avoid getting "commercial" here - but I will give you some data on what you can expect from a mild street build. We just finished up a 428 stroker that was destined for a big car (mid-60s T-bird) - and it was a really nice piece for the purpose.

This was a 428 pass car block, with the 4.25 stroke kit for 465 cubes. It had dish pistons and a lightly dolled up set of Edelbrock heads for 9.8:1 compression. It had a 238@.050 Crane hydraulic roller cam, Erson rockers, and a BT intake (sorry 'bout the guy who don't like them ) - the intake fit perfectly, looked good and ran darn well. The motor idled decently at 750RPM, and made over 500lbs TQ from 3200 all the way to 5200 with a peak of 518. For horsepower we hit 497 at 5250. Nothing incredible - but a really nice street engine that should get the job done on a reasonable budget for a long time.
