I am very very happy with the motor that Keith Craft built for me. Shelby aluminum block bored and stroked to 482 ci. 630+ hp and torque. Docile to putt around in but firebreathing dragon when you open it up. Power, from mild to wild, is very easy to modulate. It runs cool 85-90 degrees centigrade in traffic and it runs very smoothly w/o wierd vibrations (other than the monster pounding). I have a single carb and I think only stage one porting and a reasonable compression ratio. I wanted it to be trouble free, easy to just get in and drive, no tinkering and be able to run on 93 octane gas.

I would highly recommend Keith. I would buy another on of his motors in a heart beat.
