Question Backdraft Drivetrain

After a few months of research I am seriously considering a Backdraft Cobra. As far as the engine, I would like a Roush 427R or a Keith Craft Racing 427W - but I saw this on another thread and wondered if the statement has any truth to it (concerning the drivetrain):

"If you are considering the Backdraft and a Roush then buy a Superformance and anyone's engine and you will be better off for the same money. But based on the specs I've seen, I don't think the BDR drivetrain is up to a Roush 427R. So why spend the money just to break the drivetrain? Add the Roush to a Superformance and you have a killer combo that adds long term value."

Does anyone here have a 351W stroked to 427 in their Backdraft? If so, have you had any problems with the BMW rear end?

Thanks in advance.
