The 400 Ford engine is far from a boat anchor. It can be a serious 475ft # / 365 hp combo for less than $2500.00 - dollars per horse power that can challenge most any engine. All it takes is some compression and the correct cam and a little pocket porting. If need additional info let me know, I followed a Hot Rod build up from late 90's and it has been a great engine. Lots of bang for the buck.
