youve probably read my post bout my engine being toast

i was looking at the stock 250hp crate for $1475 especially since you get a 3yr/50 warranty, but now im debating spending the extra $1000 on the 330 hp motor. but in realty what can i expect out of one of these trucks? my truck is a 1/2 ton shortbed th350 and 3.73 posi. i dont really want to spend that much money on the motor if its still going to be a low 15 second truck after i put in the 330hp engine, id rather just save $1000 and have a 16 second stock truck with a 3 yr warranty on the engine. whaddya guys think?
