building 383, what comp. do I stay away from

I am going to be building a 383 and have done a LOT of esearch on parts and things and need some of you guys advice on what brands not to get and what brands are worth it. Has anyone ever had parts from Probe? I want to get all forged parts since I will be running nitrous. What brand pistons are the best for the money? anyone ever buy from this site called strokermotor.com?

I'm heard of Probe pistons. They're in my new 383. I won't be firing the motor till later this week so I can't give you a comment yet, but I've heard a couple good things about them, haven't heard anything bad though.
