Question Keith Craft Motorsports

I am curious about their engines and what have they put down. I know Jay Johnson ran 9.77 with a 402 and put down 530/455 to the rear-wheel, I know of Keith Craft and the good work they have done with Ford motors. It sounds like the quality and performance they are known for is following them to the LS1 engine. If anybody has thoughts please chime in.

They are building me a solid roller 383 motor with the goal of at least 500rwhp on pump gas. They gave me a great price for a complete package (longblock, c5r valve covers, coil-relocation, fast intake, etc.). Their customer service has also been great. I will update when I actually get my engine and report on how it performs.
