Converting a lumpy engine into a true racer?

After reading a bit on the relationship between bore/stroke and torque/revs I was thinking. Would it be worthwhile getting a holden 5 litre or simmilar (ford 5.6 would be nice) and putting a crank that reduced displacement? If you added a smaller crank and longer conrods then you could shorten the stroke and still have an alright capacity? This should make it rev better.
Has there been any reasearch on the topic or is there a reason that I cannot see that makes it not possible/worthwile?
Tim.
