Default Looking for 550+hp EFI Crate Small Block

Do these things even excist? I've looked at Bill Mitchell and Shafiroff to name two, but they only come with old tech carbs and I want to avoid those hideous things as much as possible. So if there's a company selling turn key ready EFI small block with over 550 dyno proven hp's please let me know!

Thanks in advance...

There is an article in the September issue of Chevy High Performance magazine about a 590HP, 408ci, iron block, LS1 injected engine supposedly available from Automotive Performance Engineering ( www.automotiveperformance.net) for $8500.
