Default Could this be a 300 hp engine? Dorki wisdom requested....

I've a '77 930 turbo engine that I was/am about to install into my '73 coupe when I found the engine below. The guy wants my turbo engine and I'm wondering if I might be better off with the more liner power curve of a normally aspirated engine. Could the engine below produce 300+hp? Should I just stay with the turbo?

I'm thinking maybe I should have him meet me in Atlanta for a few test runs on a Dyno.

Here are the Spec's.
3.4 liter GT twin plug twin distributor 300+BHP drive train
Motor features custom Porsche sport of california build sheet
8000 RPM,Titanium Valves, ported intake and exhaust, pined block
corelo rods, high volume oil pump, high volume fuel pump,
Huntley air mass / fuel injection management system with center consol in dash adjustment and feedback display , 64mm throttle body, complete motronic wiring harness, 11.1 compression ratio,
930 clutch assembly, 915 close ratio posi traction 5 speed
SSI exhaust system with cross flow duel exhaust
This engine and drive train have less than 15k miles. this is a street high performance system with a aggressive idle. the motor is curently in a 930S in perfect running condition, thus can be driven to buyers aproval. selling to upgrade to higher BHP.

Any thoughts on a twin plug 11.1 comp running well on 93 octane fuel?

Thanks in advance for sharing the wisdom of this board.
