You really don't need a "nitroused" 351W to run 9-10's. A naturally aspirated 351, using a Dart block that is bored .125 over, can be stroked up to 428 inches. I have a good friend, using that combination with a 13.5/1 comp. ratio, ran a 9.64 in an 88 GT first time on the track. He ran DFI on the motor, but it could easily been done with a carb instead.
Your other idea on a non-stroked low compression motor would also work well.
