im buying a 427 6.0 iron block, it comes with custom made JE forged pistons ratio, Eagle 4340 forged steel crankshafts, Eagle 4340 forged H beam rods, JE plasma moly file fit rings, Clevite HP performance bearings, Durabond cam bearings,GM rear main seal and housing and internally balanced, my question is can i use the rest of the stuff of my current stock ls1 block off my 98 z28 to to get this thing running, im planning on porting the heads and getting a camshaft new, but can i use the rest of stuff, thnx?

can i just port my heads? and i will bye a new cam, im looking for something that will let me drive it daily but have the most power, it will not be driven daily but, would like to have the reliability though, any suggestions
You should defintely buy some new heads and cam. A 427ci requires a LOT of air to get out decent power. There is no point in getting a big cube motor and not having enough head, cam, and intake to feed it.
