A guy I went to high school with bought one. Not sure what company. Shipping from them was a little on the slow side. It was a BB 454 he wanted put in his 67 camaro. The guy I work with and a buddy of his installed it. It ran pretty good and was very strong. The owner turned around after it was finished and sold the car on e-bay for over 24k. This was about a month ago.
