RE: C7AE heads, etc.

Mike,
The car was originally a 351 4-V with FMX trans and 9" 3.00 trac-lok rear. When I built the engine a few years ago I was concerned about the FMX being able to handle the new motor and replaced it with a C6. Just to clarfy, In order to make the 390 a 428 I would need to bore the block (assuming it passes a sonic test) and the swap the crank, rods, pistons, flywheel, harmonic balancer and crank pulley. Is this a prudent swap or is there an easier, more economical way to get more horsepower from a 390.
Thanks,
Paul
