But seriously...there's a lot out there. Nu-tek is another good one.
I'm having one of our board members build my 396. You just need to check what is out there...do a search on the board and see who has theirs done by who or who bought what parts and make an educated decision and what is best suited for you.
But remember, you get what you pay for especially for a stroker or a straight rebuild.

Other then those listed I'd say summit racing makes more "cheap" kits for less extreme applications. Beyond that, if you watch on ebay every now and then a killer deal comes along for parts, but then you have to have all the balance/machine work done and you're not always sure what you're getting.

I guess that would all depend on your goals and most importantly your budget.

combo motorsports has a killer GP going in the GP section for a perfect rotating assembly for you
a 383 will cost almost the same as a 350 anyway.
I personally think Combo is the best, especially when it comes to boost
they are some CRAZY boost happy snmabitches (24lbs daily driven with 1300hp- something along those lines!)
Forced induction is really thier specialty
I'm sure they have have everything you need to build your motor.

There are alot more cost involved in a 383 over a 350. You can do a rebuild of a 350 relatively cheap.
There is a pretty good price difference depending on your setup. I agree that the people a CM are awesome.

Depending on what he wants to do he does not need to get a forged crank. He can get away with using a stock crank, throwing some Eagle Rods and Forged pistons. If he wants to go with a forged 355 it will still be cheaper than a forged 383 because you can get away with putting a Forged GM crank ($450).

383 396 and 355 cranks are all the same pice
