Re: De-stroker kits for 351W?

I've designed and engine like this. One of these days I'll build it. Basically using a 9.5 deck 351 and a 302 billet crank, Custom I beam rods because H beams won't take the change in momentum as the revs go up and down. It will also need a good solid roller cam and absolutely bullit proof valve train.
I figured it would be around 750hp at 10,000 revs and about 485 lbft of torque.
The issue I see it this engine would want to rev to around 12,000 revs but the block won't take the harmonics past 10,000 revs and the valve train just won't keep up.
