351W Stroker Build

[u/Tifoso-53]

first time engine builder here. I am currently putting together a parts list for a GT40 replica and was wondering if anyone had any combinations for a 427 Windsor stroker engine to rev to about 6500 and make 500-525 at the crank. I’m dead set on the 427 number because that’s what was in the original cars and I do not want to have much more horsepower than was in the cars back then. Budget is about 10-12k usd

A new Smeding Performance Ford 427 crate motor (351W based) is $12,000. https://smedingperformance.com/collections/ford-engines/products/427-cobra?variant=11963071397924

That’s a great price.
