It should out last the stock block as far HP. I think they rate that stuff at 650  hp or so. but that don't mean it wont take more. _____________________________ Got Hope? Yea, I got hope.

It's generally lighter too. _____________________________ Who cares how much horsepower it has, all that matters is how fast it goes!
