Default new 347 stroker questions

ok, my dad has decided taht the stang is too slow, so this coming summer a 347 is most likely on the way. I was thinking the D.S.S. kit, but i have some questions. This will be put in a stock H.O. block with gt-40 heads, a powerdyne supercharger, cam with around .490/.510 lift, and proabably an edelbrok perfromer intake. larger maf and im assuming 24lb injectors. now the D.S.S. kit ahs three options, 3cc flat top/inline pistons, 3cc flat top/twisted wedge pistons or the 18cc Max quench/inline/twisted wedge pistons. which should i get? this car will be for the street with occasional drag use, but i do not want it to be slow. also any other upgrades i should be considering, engine wise, i have the drivetrain under control. o and any other good kits out there?

i forgot to mention that a paxton novi 2000 would most likely be replacing the powerdyne, or an equivalent vortech

scat stuff is good, eagle is good - so whatever you find thats the best deal consisting of parts made by either or and you'll be good.

you'll want either speed pro (what used to be trw), probe, je, or wiesco pistons - stay away from the keith blacks cause they are not forged.
