Was shooting from the hip, same performance, less money, run some L92 heads on a nice 408 that doesnt carry the extra 500+ bucks for the TSP name on it and you have a lethal combo for less than just the shortblock of the L92 stroker

To my knowledge you cant get the block yet there is a PN for it but not availabel yet. Cheaper to go the tried and true iron block 6.0L 408, plus I would wait a while and see what happens when high hp is pushed through a new block. Unless you have alot of money to burn its usually not best ot be first(speaking from personal experience )
