You can get 350hp out of a stock bottom end motor. So start with a bone stock motor, then you can put a cam in it, a GOOD set of aluminum heads (needed since you won't have high compression to make power), carbed intake and a Holley.
Something to consider is will a Windsor even fit under the hood of one of those Daytona coupes? Its got a pretty low hoodline.

Note the engine placement in relation to the suspension. Eight Webers ought to be easy to tune! 
Nice looking car. Always wanted to do something like this.
Look around. Factory 5 makes the most user friendly kit, but there are plenty of others out there. Make sure you do a LOT of research before committing to a project like this. The guy with the Everett Morrison kit took about 5 years to finish his. It was beautiful, but 5 years of time is a killer investment.
