427" iron block.
LQ4 or LQ9 block filled to the bottom of the water pump passage. 4.07" bore
Callies Compstar 4.100" crank.
Eagle 6.125" rods.
Wiseco pistons.
Ported 243 heads 2.055" intake 1.60" exhaust( You can go bigger or L92/LS7 if your budget allows)
@11.0-11.5:1 CR
Cam by Patrick G based on use, head flow, intake, etc.

Is it okay to put in potential builds, like a 427 or 440 built with the LSX or LQ9 block?
If it was me for under 10k,
LQ9 (4.03" bore) or LSX block (4.155 or 4.125 bore)
Callies 4 or 4.1" crank
Wiseco forged pistons
Texas Speed CNC ported L92/LS3 head with 0.65" lift valve spring update
10.5 compression
Comp cams camshaft and pushrods
I'm oldschool and I hate figuring out EFI, so I'll get a Holley 770 or 870 cfm carb and L92 intake
