Best beef cut for kabobs?

its been a long time since I've made them and I'm getting in the mood.  What cut of beef do you find works best for kabobs, I want to cook relatively hot after an overnight marinade.  I'm thinking  inch to inch and a half cubes.
Love you bro!

    Top sirloin for me, have some marinating as we speak (well as we read each other's posts)

    As a kabob is a short fast cook, I would think you would want to avoid tough cuts of meat that benefit from the low & slow.  i.e. The preferred cuts would be the same as preferred cuts for a nice steak.  Personally, I think Filet Mignon would make a very nice and tender Kabob.  and if you like spicy, cut some habaneros in 1/2 and place the inside of the pepper up against the meat.  you don't have to eat the Hab, but your pieces of steak will be nicely seasoned.
