Default Forged Rods and Piston help ?

I am trying to find a good forged 347 shortblock and have some questions. I was looking at the MTI forged 347 and they use weisco pistons and manley sportsman rods. Are there any weak points in those products? How much power will they hold and how high can I spin the motor providing I use ARP 2000 bolts etc...??

I already have a G5X3 114 cam, AFR 205 59cc heads, and a nitrous kit. I plan to spray at least a 150 shot but I dont use it often!

Also, with milled heads, should I have dished pistons or valve reliefs or what? Sorry, Im kinda new to the forged scene.

Thanks guys
