Default Best Shortblock? MMR?

Its been a while guys. But I am in the process of getting a built shortblock for my KB setup and I was wondering what would you guys recommend and please describe your experiences with the company you decided to go with. I have been highly considering MMR due to price but I have heard of a member on here blowing up twice with a MMR block. Please follow up with me on this guys....

Jivepepper has a MMR shortblock, he always says its a great piece. I think he's been running it for 3 years or something, an he's putting down near 650hp now.

MMR is what I'm looking towards when my stock motor blows up.

Well if you have the money the IMO go with DSS Racing. I just put there top of the line super pro mod short block in my car, the thing is a beast. Cant go wrong with them, I know a couple others with similar dss short blocks and they all love them.

I've heard good things about MMR, I've heard good and bad about DSS, but who knows?
My motor was built by ProLine Race Engines http://www.prolineraceengines.com/ and built by the hands of God himself (Tim Lynch). I'm happy with mine. ProLine use to build the motors for MPH (I think they are strictly doing high end race cars now), MPH is now building their own so you might want to check on them as well.
