The 347 will give me at max 375-400 hp. The 393 - maybe closer to 500.
Would the 347 beat the windsor on a road course? Is it incorrect to think the 347 would wind up quicker and be zippier?

you can do better than 400 hp with a 347. Ford Racing sells a stroker crate engine with the Z heads that puts out 450 hp. If you swap your ported GT 40 heads for the Zs or some AFRs or Trick Flows and get a matching cam, you can easily surpass 450 hp and get into the 475 hp range. How much do you need for a street car anyway?
