Default Any Experience with a World Products Engine

Last time I asked this question no one had a World Products engine. Specifically a 427 CI small block. What is reliability like, quality, overall performance?
If no forst hand experience, what have you heard about World Products?

There is a forum member with a Bill Mitchell 427 SBC in his Vette. I can't remember his user name but he is from Hawaii and his Vette is yellow. He or someone who knows him will chime in I'm sure.

I have thier "Sportsman II" heads on my engine. I am really happy with them. Came assembled and seem to be good quality for the $$.

My sisters boyfriend had a Bill Mitchell 327 in his Camaro and this was one bad motor. He got more than he paid for with this motor. Cost was 7or7500 complete.
