Default 6.0L (L98) GEN4 LSX Crate Engines

I just received access to some surplus GEN4 (58x) 6.0L (L98) crate engines, and thought some of you might have an interest. These engines have the low profile (L76/LS3) intake manifold, 42 # injectors, 90MM FBW T body. L92 cylinder heads, Corvette damper and water pump. 8 plus qt. G8 rear sump oil pan. These dyno at 400 Crank HP with the small cam from factory. with cam over 500.

Can convert to 24x crank reluctors for an additional 200 dollars.

$5500 ea, Qty discounts available.

These are for a Holden built vehicle, not sure which one. I would recommend using your stock manifolds or headers to insure fitment.

I am very interested in finding out more about these engines - looks like a good price instead of buying LS2 or L76, especially if you can squeeze 500hp with a cam. But I am confused. Wikipedia says the stock L98 makes 362hp, not 400hp. Is this the same engine? Where can I find out more about the dyno 400hp so I know what I am buying?

Here is the reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_LS_engine#L98

Has anyone out there purchased/modified one of these and can tell me more about it?

Thanks,
G.
