I realize the OP has a Windsor but since he is gathering information that should be pointed out. A 585 HP 427/482 is very different than a 585 hp 351/427.

Good luck!

I agree with you 100%,I was referring to a small block stroker making 585 hp.....A big block stroker making the same hp will be a lot "tamer" and streetable engine than the 427 small block stroker.......
