Well Ive just recently decided which one to purchase myself and the Shell valley is the way Im going. Shell and FFR are nice but I found more things about Shell that fit into what I wanted. I plan on going with a 514 385 series ford backed up with a C6, this setup is great for drag racing or just going out on a nice saturday. The FFR was originally made for the well known 302 with a T5 tranny, not a bad setup but not what I wanted. I know that FFR has added new setups that allow you to run the 351, the FE and the 385 series but I kinda think thats a bandaid approach considering its not what it was designed to run with in the first place. Another reason I have chosen Shell is my size im 6 foot 4 and built like a lineman the FFR is just to tight where as the Shell fit great make sure ya sit in them first. Its really up to you and what ya like, there both good kits what I suggest is talk to both companys, really get to know the people and make your mind up that way because your gonna really need to get along with them in the long run and. Its no fun working with someone you dont jibe with but hey its my opinion 25 cents might get ya a cup of coffee.
