Has anyone dynoed one of these engines? Are they worth the money vs a 302 roller stroker? my interest is for a street application in a 2500 pound car.

To be honest (and in my opinion)...the block makes me nervous with its WAY too short bore skirts, and the cam is incredibly outdated. The heads are excellent...but imo there are far better options for your money!!

The best thing about this engine are the way cool Windsor "Boss" valve covers! Other than that, you could put together something a lot better for less money yourself that would run rings around it. But like I said, the valve covers are pretty damn cool.
