As Dwight has mentioned earlier, I have a Keith Craft 428 stroked to 461 in my Hurricane Cobra and have been very happy with it. It has 600 hp and 619 ft.lbs. trq on the dyno. It handles well around town and has outstanding torque when you need it. It runs down the I-state at 75 mph/2100 rpm with ease. Keith has built another motor for me, a 408 stroker for my Daytona Coupe. This engine is also very well suited for the street with plenty of Jazz (527hp/557trq) and will cruise on the I-state at about the same speed and rpm as my cobra. I know there are other good engine builders out there, but I have personally seen Keith's shop and know him to be very honest and efficient with your money. If I can answer any questions, contact me.
Best of luck with your endeavor.
Coach Mike
