danc30,
I do not have anything right now although I am slated for a Roush 427. I did intentionally pass up on two SPF's with 460's that were substantially less cost. If I wanted a trunk engine I would buy a truck. If I wanted an engine that overheated on a regular basis I would get a BB, if I wanted to plow into every turn I would get a BB, if I wanted to scrape every speed bump I would get a BB.

You are already going to pay a decent amount of coin for the Roush small block. Why not fork out a bit more dough and get an aluminum FE?

Then you can have the best of both worlds.
