They are both good kits. The Eagle kits are made and machined in china and the scat kits are made in china and machined in the U.S.A. Probe also makes a decent kit. The cubic inches is up to you. I don't think there is much difference in power levels between the two. I've seen both sizes make similar power and torque levels. The D.S.S. stuff is scary.

D.S.S. doesn't make blocks! They refurbish used factory FORD blocks. There blocks are no different then your own block and they don't have a higher nickle content.
