StuM,
I also have the Stroker 427 from CHP, I went through a local shop that is thier distr. on this side of the world. We got the engine and then dynoed it at his facility. It was thier base build with no options whatsoever. The only thing that I did differently was put my Demon on top instead of the Holley, just to save a couple more bucks. It does have the warrenty and ran flawlessly. Produced 529 peak HP @ 5700 and 535 ft/lb torque @ 4400. What we did is after the dyno run and break in was to let them know that we had a couple of hickups while dynoing but had resolved them just so they know. Then if anything does happen down the road they shouldn't have to many problems with them honoring the warrenty. Also if there are any problems my guy here will end up doing the work here so that I won't have to ship the engine across the country for the fix. End result is that engines are being made much stronger and more reliable than ever, and you can't go wrong with the warrenty.
Good luck,
Todd
