I love it. I've biult several engines and usually end up spending $2500 minimum adn it takes a good long while (I get more than 290 horses though ). I spent about $1500 after shipping ($150 freight) and it took a weekend to get it running and driving. I would recommend it to anybody looking for a good, solid, easy, set up then get a crate. As far as which one, that's all in what you're doing with the truck, I just want to tow, go camping, and use my truck as a truck, so I really don't need any extra horsepower and I like the low RPM range of the torque curve with the penut cam. I have a Camaro to hot rod around in.
