Question Power to weight ratio?

Heres my question. I'm looking to build a 408 stroker w/aprrox. 525 HP @5,600 & 499 TQ @4,900. (Dyno2000). Ford sells the 514 stroker which advertises 600 HP @6,250 & 590 TQ @ 4,750. The cost for each is almost the same. (I feel I'm getting better parts with the 408) What is the weight differnce between the 351 stroker to the 460 stroker? Would the BB and all its TQ offset the weight difference or is the SB a better choice? Plan on using the Cobra for daily driving and drag racing on the weekends. Not interested in the autocross racing. Thanks for any input. Rodney
