Best 302 Mfr. ???

Just lost my balancer today and messed up my crank - that engine was old anyway.

So, I'm in the market for a new 302 block for my 1977 F100 - anyone crossed this bridge before and have some helpful experience ?

I have heard great things about DSS racing, they have a 306 that actually turns out some decent snot. of course there is FordRacing, there shortblocks are real nice . might be time to go STROKER or move the displacment up with a 351w swap.

what about some of these internet vendors - any experience with them?

remanufactured-engines.com
powerpro2000.com
or others

I'd like to stay with the 302. Thank for the help.
