That's the same reason I went with the 351W instead of the 460. I really considered a 460 or 429 b4 I started building the '79. In the end, I finally concluded with a 351W. Obviously, that is what I suggest for you. I think you'll be happier in the end with the 5.8. Biggest doesn't always equate to best.
