Personally, I like PAW, but I have dealt with Summit and Jeg's with no complaints.

Just make sure you get a crank kit that gives you pistons, rods, and crank all together. Make sure that you order this kit for the year of your engine block so that the rear main seal is right. You don't want to deal with too much weirdness on your first go around.

You might try engine shops in your area. They usually have a good selection of parts, and you can also get their opinions on what components would match up well.
