Get a 427 or 454 block and use your 396 rotating assmebly in it. 
You will end up with an overbore 427. I did in '93 to change 'Old Blue' back to a BB.
If 'numbers not matching' bothers you, take a disc grinder to the stamp pad and casting numbers etc. Leave that puppy smooth and let everyone guess.
