Default Supercharged LT crate engine options

I'm getting started on restoration / Pro touring build of my 69 Camaro, and am pretty certain I'll end up using a Supercharged LT engine. Two I've been looking at are the GM wetsump LT4, and the Edelbrock Eforce LT 416 crate engines. Application is primarily street and spirited backroad driving but might end up on a track once or twice. I've digested everything I can find online about the Eforce but can't find anyone who has used one in anything, quite a few examples of the GM LT4 crate engine including 69 Camaros. The power level of the EForce is really attractive to me, but it's hard to spend that kind of coin not hearing anyone who's had experience with it. Any thoughts on the Eforce LT 416 crate would be appreciate or other options to consider for that matter.

You are in the wrong LT1 section, this is the red headed Gen 2 padded room.

Ooops, guess I should have read the section label more carefully. I don't see an obvious Gen 5 location to put this question, I'll put it in Gen 5 internal I guess.
