Having done the 350, I can agree (from experience) with those stating the 455 is cheaper.

However, I had a reason for doing the 350, and would do the same again for my reason.

If I could subtract about 20 years, there is still about 200 pounds of excess weight on the car; but it is scary fast now, another 200 pounds less and it would be more of a hand-full. First gear is virtually useless now for driving in anger, and I refuse to tub the rear fenders.
