Default which motor 302 or 351

I am new to the motor building and I need a lot of help. i am going to build a mustang between 1964 and 1969 and i need a motor for it. i dont know what motor to use a 302 or a 351. im going to use a five speed trany. i want it to be a quick car a really quick car. but it has to be some what street able cause it is going to be manly on the street with the weekend trip to the strip. i was thinking 400 to 500hp. preferably with a 302 because there is plenty of them around here and parts are a little cheaper. which motor and what all needs to be done to it and can i get by with out boring it out. Thanks for all the help

no replacement for displacement and the 351 block is so much BETTTER then the 302 blocks. as far as strength I would not think twice about it.
