That would be me. Chad
Its not that good of a SS combo even at 229HP. Their is very little room for HP gains over the STK eliminator engine. A good SS 281 motor may make around 480-490 HP(which is only 50 or so more HP then a stocker one), maybe even 500 with the right cams. a good running 283 like Robbin browns makes well over 500 HP. Which is rated around 225 to 230 I think.
