New Motor Question?

Has anyone bought a 5.4 short block with high performance package? If so from who, how much and did it have heads with new valves and springs? What was the top HP it can take? I tried search and you can guess how many came up with wrong info. Or just steer a person in the right direction. I was told PSP sells them is this correct?

I have a complete built engine from JDM
Rods, Pistons, bigger Valves, porting etc. It is working great for me. From what I was told it will handle 700 hp with no problems. Mine isn't turned up much right now, but will be tuned this week.

Johnny Lightning, and Power Surge Performance offer kits too.
