Both can be built to be very streetable. As to which one, thatis your preference. There have been hundreds of debates on the forum about 347 vs 331.

i like the idea of a 331 stroker.....it's different although most of my buddies say "since your stroking it, go big or don't go at all." ofcourse they all have 347's. either would be good in my opinion, i want a 331 becuase no one else has it around here really.

depends on what you are looking for really, if you want all motor go with 347, but if you want to add a charger or something go with the 331 because the 347 wont last long at all with a charger on it it is just too much for it, my preference would be the 331, that is actually what im working on right now, i have the R302 block from ford and im building it to put a charger on it, my firend has one also with a vortech and he loves it on the street and last week he ran a 10 flat in the 1/4. So really it depends on what you want.

i personally want the 331 but i'm also going to use a charger on it. but since i'm driving it more than a typical racer prob would then 331 would be better cause 347 will wear out sooner
