454's might have plenty of torque but a 396 can go all the way. 454's are to big to spin up quick but the 396 can hit the higher rpm's easy. Plus there is the hundred pound difference

The 454 is a slug compared to the 396. The 454 and 427 are the same block and about 100 lbs more than the 396. For the power and weight, go with a 396
