Doug,

I have an ERA 289/FIA built out as a street car. There are photos in my gallery. The 289 is very nimble great handling car - all of the manufacturers you listed make fine ones.

Like some others, I prefer the lines of the 289 over the 427, they also tend to be a little lighter. Power is not an issue, since you can get more than enough HP out of a 351. I also think the drivability is a little better with a small block.
