Default 1800runsnew 632ci 725hp for $9750 good?bad?ugly?

I noticed the ad in PB mag. and went to these guys website. They got this new 632 ci motor for $9750.00 bucks. I know the old addage, you get what you pay for but.... $9750 is a damn tempting price!
Anyone ever bought a motor from these guys? How did it run? Would you buy another one from them again?

Can you even get 630 cuin from a 502 block? Everybody else is using the Merlin blocks. I see they have stainless valves in inconel. I also see that they are using Eagle rods.

Hey Pure-
It doesn't sound as though you have had any problems. Would you buy from them again?

Im looking HARD at the 540 600hp model. It seems like a real good deal. I have spent some time talking to them and it sounds like they are using all the good parts in them and they come with a warrenty !!
