351 power ??????&weight???

can you run 400 to 450lbs and matching HP through the broad range of the power band. without having a tricked out motor. And yet still having a 351 windsor that will be tough and last. any good, solid build ups would be helpful info. thanks. oh and would anyone happen to KNOW the actual weight..thanks......

You could build a fairly stout motor for a daily driver, you may find that 400-450hp is a lot for a daily driver. A stroker motor with good aftermarket or recondtioned/ ported heads and a good cam should get you around 400 reliable hp just depends on who does the machine work and assembly. How much you wanna spend?
