Sal,
Don't feel bad - you made the right choice. Your stroked 427 will out-torque a stock stroked one every day of the week. When you are driving on the street or in weekend warrior drags, torque is king. Don't worry about revving either - if your motor is tuned right it will rev as well as any other 427. Who cares anyway - torque is what gets you off the line, not a fast moving tack needle. Sure, a 289 will hit 6000 RPM sooner than a 428 will, but my money is on the 428 when it comes to E.T.
Just my opinion.....
