Tony,
I have the "427 Classic" from CHP, no upgrades except for putting my Demon carb on it, bought it for a couple of reasons. One was the cool factor, two was the horse power that they advertised, three was the warrenty. I had it shipped to the local distributor, then we broke it in on the dyno approx. 6 hrs total, made sure there were not going to be any problems, once the original break in was done we really flogged it. We also tried a few header combos to see what produced the best results. In the end 529HP @ 5200 RPM & 535 ft/lbs torque @ 3700 RPM all this at the flywheel. I now have it in and about 250 miles on it and just love it. The only thing we have yet to do is run it over to the shop and put it on the chasis dyno and see what we get at the rear wheels. In my opinion you will not regret getting this engine.

Good Luck,
Todd
