A Dream 400 M Engine

Ok boys, "400M" What would you build if money was no object? This engine would have to be streetable but still be a whole lot of fun in the hills or mud.

Crane roller cam, Aussie heads, Single plane manifold if the vehicle isn't too heavy.

Take the Hot Rod build-up of the 400 and add custom EFI (taking bits and pieces such as computer, sensors etc. from other ford applications).

Do you want a big horsepower, high rpm road racer or a low rpm torque monster 4x4? IMHO, the 400 is better for the latter, though the former is a possibility as well. The answer will depend upon what you want as the two possibilities are quite a bit different.

I was thinking a mean *** stump puller, but to run on 92 octane.
