A 351 is considered more desirable by many, this may be worth something when you sell the car. They cost the same to build. Only real questions: will it fit (yes), do you think you might want another 50 inches? Will you be happy with a cobra that has a motor that is only 70% the displacement of the original, 82% the displacement, or a stroker that is 427 inches? The latter two choices require the 351 block if you want to do it with a windsor
