also reliable is a hard question to answer.... do you know how many miles are on the motor and was this motor beaten on (sure it was) but with those factors untol itll be hard to say

What's so wrong with boosting a 427? If its what you want, then go for it. With you only pushing 10 psi, I don't think the motor will have any problems holding that power.
