350. It is much more universal and has many more bolt ons and you have a better rpm range. We have a friend who races in a class called the southern ground pounders. He uses a 350 and smokes everyone. Most everyone else uses a big block which just doesnt get the job done because they run in third gear instead of our friend who can run second gear and has much more torque do to the rpm range. Thats just my opinion but im biased due to racing:lol:
