I have nearly that much in my 350 and its not dyno tuned, nor does it have a warranty.

Heck you can get 540 hp out of a hydraulic roller 383 with good quality parts for a lot less.

I'd say keep the block if it's good, stroke it and put some good heads on there and you'll be happy with over 500hp.
