if it were me i would look somewhere else depending on what price your getting it for. 427s are nice but for boost id go 370

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.
