I use the MP cross ram, I like it alot. It is heavy, and they've given a lot of meat in areas where it can be flowed, which was probably the idea.
I've never touched mine, but that's what I want. It's been my experience that when you do a lot of hacking anc cutting you, at the end, wind up with some kind of morphidite that is combination specific. At this age, that's not what I want. We might wind up using it on five different motors.
I use two old Holley 660's, and it works great....I shift at 6800 rpm, and am quite satisfied.
It depends on what you're looking for.
