Advice on a Good Built Block (302/306/331/347)

[Manewaymja2]

Hey Guys,
I already have a Thread on here asking about what cubic inch to go with on my Bottom end. Well I have deceided to buy a built Short Block for my Top End.

The Run Down: Heads Performer 6037 Heads, Performer Intake, hardened pushrods, 1.6 Pedestal Mount Rockers. Now i want to spray this motor with at least 150 Shot Nitrous with a wet kit. Can you guys recommend a good built Short Block (Builders - Shops - Online Stores etc) out there for me to purchase one, any where in the range from a 302 -347 would be good.

Thanks Matt

my buddy is on his 3rd engine from them, first one lasted a month, second about 6 months, third a couple years but he doesnt really drive it anymore. BUT! this could be no fault of CHP and simply be attributed to the fact he graduated from UTI, haha (Universally Trained Idiots)

I had a D.S.S. short block it was excellent, or you can try the 347 from FRPP M-6009-Z347

Ford strokers is 12 weeks out. I've had 2 DSS motors, both sucessful, one of which has been alive for 7 years making my posted numbers with the turbo. I guess I'll go with them again with another 331, but the Boss block this time around.

a lot of people seem to hate DSS. friend of mine went 9.9x on a DSS race prepped block, seems to me like they machine some good stuff.
