Default Strokers-331 or 347???

I am considering upgrading my 5.0 engine next month (current one has 140 K miles) and I daily drive 120 miles. I want to maintain drivability but also would like a little more kick; goal horsepower would still be less than 450 hp at max.

331 would be the way to go. 347's don't make the best daily drivers. the wrist pin goes through the oil ring groove making them burn oil.
