Does anyone know if the Scoggin Dickey Crate TPI is just an L31 vortec 350, with heads modded for lift, a hotcam, and the TPI baseplate? Is there Anything else done to it?

I've got a long list of different combos, prices, power ratings, etc. etc. I'm i've been looking over various vortec combos, and I want to see if I'm comparing apples to apples.

 

do you have a link or a part number?

I think it is just that, an L31 shortblock, but I wasn't sure

 

that's a lot of money for that little power..

 

While I dont argue that it's not the BEST bang for the buck out there, it's not bad for UNDER $5000. Can't think of another crate with warranty for that little money, with that much power. I mean it's not groundbreaking, but it's not too shabby. It's a tad more power than the zz4 for a lot less money.
...but I'm more looking at specs than actually shopping. Call it OCD, but I've got a spreadsheet of different combos, compression ratios, cams, heads etc. etc., and I like factory crates because you don't have guys doing little custom things to help (or sometimes hurt) performance. If GM's crates hit a certain number, you can be sure you can replicate it piece by piece and get similar numbers.
