[67FEfastback]

I all boils down to personal preference, and budget considerations.

When I first started with the idea of doing an FE, I went through one bad block, then another (trying to find a good used engine)

At that point I discussed with my engine builder, doing a 408 W stroker.
Adding up the costs, It was going to be about $2K more to do the base windsor stroker, than to do a street 428, because I already had the block and crank (all that was usable from the 428)

If budget is no consideration, then a man-o-war block based W is going to be pretty stout, but stroking an FE to 464,484, or 500+ cu is going to make more power

A more economical (heavier) option is the 460 block, probably more power and cheaper then the stroker W.

For me, I respect the power these motors can make, but I'd rather open the hood, and look at an FE, or soch motor.

It's the same thing, when I look at all the hot rods, at the cruises etc. 90% of the cars use a 350 chevy for a power plant, economical, good power but boring.
I have much more respect for the guys using an interesting power package, like a nailhead, flathead, etc.
