I don't know how well I'd believe the claims unless dyno sheets are provided in the sale, often times builder states claim is based on a simialar build using comparable parts ect , ect......, post a link

T&L is very good about not BSing you.
when they finished up the 408W we put in my friends car, they included a video of the dyno, the actual dyno sheets as well as the whole list of components, specs, and how to properly setup the engine.

if you want to buy a complete engine, id recommend them.

but we all know building your own motor is the way to go. its like an instant orgasm every time you turn the key...

if you want a good crate engine, look at the 500hp 347 T&L offers.
pump gas, solid roller, ported DART heads, all the goodies for like 4,995.

that engine is sort of the basis for the BB 347 im going to have them put together for me. (well, they're going to send me the parts. i still want to build it, but they'll take care of getting everything together in one crate.) 4.125" bore DART SHP block (couldnt pass on the price, i got it for $1500) and a 331 stroker crank = 347 the right way lol.
