Total including motor was right around 7 or 8k. Not realy sure but I do know I could have shaved a grand off for the cost of the motor.

Since I am not sure what the HP output is though I am not sure its a fair comparison.

No I still haven't

If I put 15k into my engine I would be pissed to only be putting out 290, I would expect nothing less than the mid to high 300s for that kind of money.

What exactly did he have done to it to make it 15k? That seems like an awfully steep number if you ask me.
