Good shortblock... questions

guys... im weighing about options here in case I did fug up mu crank and everything in the block(not that i did).

But whats a good assembled shortblock out there? I'd like something to fit tea 1.5 heads and my lil 224/224 cam. I need something streetable also...

i'd like to make a little more power, but im not up to par on what to look for in new blocks/etc

CR would need to be in the 10:6 to 11:1 range since i only run pump 93 gas also! Thats a must...

should I stay in the forged 347 range or maybe step up to the 38x's?

again, just gathering info here

You don't need a shortblock HD.
