i cant decide which engine to build. should i build sbc 350 with a turbo or a 454 bbc?
keep in mind both the 350 and 454 both need to be rebuild.

That all depends on what you want - not someone else. What are you using the car for, what goals do you want to achieve, How much do you want to spend is the big question.

i will be using it for drag and some autocross/ street driving. my first goal is to be in the 11 second range in the 1/4 mile. which one would cost less to get it in the 11 second range?

My guess is the big block would be cheaper to get the ET you're looking for. With that said, the small block would be the choice for the autcrossing you want to do. The big block, especially with iron heads, would be ill handling due to being nose heavy. Not too many big block corner carvers around. Lee
