I just decided to buy a new shortblock since I found out today that my rings are bad and I need a rebuild. I narrowed it down to 2 because I am on a budget and am trying to spend about $1,500 or less. Either a Ford racing 302 or a DSS Racing base Bullet 306. Which would you get?

When I can afford it I'm getting a coast high short block. I wouldn't get the ford one because of the cast pistons. www.coasthigh.com

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
