Is this engine builder nuts?

I get tired of always reading the get rid of the teen, and get a 360 replies on these threads. However this one is not the case. IMO the OP is looking for an unreasonable amount of power for a low buck build. I have a teen, and a 360 sitting in my shop. I plan on building both, but to keep a stock stroke motor, and look for 350 HP, I'd go with the 360. What research I have done, reading threads on here, and talking to my engine builder buddy, getting close to 1 HP per cubic inch is not all that hard, and not all that expensive. Going over that can run into major $$'s. Build a teen if that's what you want, but be realistic on expectations for $'s spent.
