One thing I will say, Ford man that I am and engine purist as well, Chevy engines are much cheaper to build, especially small blocks. The same money spent on parts and engine will produce more torque and hp in a Chevy than anything else simply because the market for Chevy upgrades is more competitive.
As to finding a 427, dunno. You mentioned that you were in Califronia in a thread under Weaponry, right? CA is where a lot of the action is as far as old cars goes. This is good in that you have a lot of aftermarket supplier in arm's reach. This is bad because you are competing with a lot more folks for the same resources. I would start looking on the internet for blocks. Try Ebay, auto trader publications, etc. It'll be a tough search, and expensive, but worth it in the end.
