Default 393 or 408

Idecied to go stroked 351w but not sure wich , 393w 0r 408w
I looked all over but didnt find anybig differents but 15cui
and the 393 can be built with no notching on the block, different crank ,351w rods, and 302 pistons,but not sure how strong the rotating assembly would be when using those parts.

Is the 393 better on the street than the 408????

It will be street strip and a little spray (100 shot)
