[QUOTE="Brian Baskin, post: 1159171, member: 2743"] 351s are cheaper, stronger, have a better aftermarket, and can be made more powerful. (there's a 10 second Gen1 on the stock short block in NJ). It's debatable that the trucks are better designed, and looks are subjective. But, they do handle better, weigh less, and are easier/cheaper to work on. They have dual air seats, for driver and passenger, with adjustable lumbar and bolster support. Aluminum driveshafts, stiffened frames, one-off rear end carriers with added cooling fins, factory oil cooler, factory tranny cooler, and added traction slappers bars. They drive hard like a hot rod and can take the abuse. Stock for stock is the only place the Gen2 beats the Gen1, and that's only on 1/4 and top speed. :D :rockon: [/QUOTE]
