On a 427 replica, what's the best engine choice to have a perfect (and marketable) replica?

It is possible to bore and stroke a small block ford engine to 427 cu/7 liters and develop that kind of horse power, but isn't it more likely that your paperwork is just not correct in yet another way.
If your car turns out to really be a 1996 Kirkham that has an inaccurate title indicating that the car is from 1961 for the purpose of getting it registered in Switzerland, then perhaps the car may not really be properly and legally registered. And that might limit the countries in Europe that you could legally get the car registered in when you try to sell it.
