I've had 4 engines from John (for different cars, not because of blow ups I'll add). They have all been excellent. The 4.8 lump I have at the moment is fabulous. Previous engines were 3.5's, all developing a reliable 300 BHP.

Go for his tripple plenum. That's what I'm running with on the 4.8, and it has a torque curve about a mile wide.
