Glenn,
Hey, we have a lot in common.
I have ERA FIA #2052, with a DSS engine. That's the good news. Unfortunatley I can't tell you too much about DSS, since I have not yet started the engine. I'm about 2 weeks away from getting it running. Time to complete my build has been an issue but it's finally soming to completion.
I bought from DSS based on their reputation in the Ford performance magazines and my discussions with their shop. I bought a 331 Long Block with the Canfield Stage 3 heads. It has all the other good stuff: Crower Rods, forged steel crank, custom forged Venolia pistons, Comp Camp hyd. roller cam., Harland-Sharp roller rockers, main bearing girdle. They delivered everything as promised and on time. The motor should put out ~440HP and 420+ ft. lbs of torque. I am confident I made a good choice, but the proof will be in the pudding.
I thought long and hard about the 306. I think it is a great package and a lot less $'s than the 331. I bet one of them would really sing with a solid roller cam, the right heads and intake.
Have fun!
Greg
