recon 350 crate

I went to summit racing today and was looking at their fully assembled engines. They had a Recon 350 chevy crate engine. I was wondering if any one has used this engine before? If so how was it? What other parts does this engine require to run? Here is what it comes with...

These 350 HP dyno-tested Chevy 350s feature a 4-bolt block (honed with deck plates), cast crankshaft, Keith Black hypereutectic pistons, I-beam connecting rods with ARP bolts, Melling high volume oil pump, a Crane 222/234 degrees duration hydraulic camshaft, Clevite main and rod bearings, and Fel-Pro gaskets. You also get World Products Sportsman II heads, Pioneer 1.5 ratio rockers, Eldelbrock Performer RPM intake, Dynagear double roller timing chain, oil pan, valve covers, and a timing cover. Dyno sheet included.

What do you guys think?

Thanks alot
