On a moderately high reading dyno, 490 sounds perfectly reasonable, and in line with what others have made. Kinda funny the difference between what the guy who built the car says and the dealer trying to sell the car. I'd still go get a compression and leakdown test and do an oil analysis, no matter how cool the previous owner was. If I had a motor on the way out, I'd be tempted to trade it in and claim I was getting rid of it because of an incoming baby also.
