390?

By New at this - 06/16/2003 3:34:10 AM; IP 65.82.171.176

i am new to the whole mustang thing i am planning by next year to have a 67 68 or 69 mustang fastback but i haven't decided yet. i have been thinkin about engines a lot and i think i want a 390. i was wondering if it is possible, and fairly easy, to get about 400 HP 450 torque out of this engine. What kind of boreing and stroking would i be looking at. also, last question, if you had to choose between the 67, 68, or 69 mustang fastback what would you choose and why.
thanks extreamly much i am trying to gather as much intel as possible as this will be my first EVER expeirience working with engines and cars. HELP!!
