It's hard for me to guess: which costs the less money, and which would you buy based on the cost?

What would a long block "crate" 350 cost (before dressing it up)?

What do you think a Jasper rebuilt long-block 235 or 261 would cost (before dressing it up)?

First, I say buy what suits your tastes.

But, I am with Cletis. 350s at a car show are like a nose, everyone has one. (How do you like the way I cleaned up that aphorism?)
