This is a good visual represntation. Its for fuel injected engines(they dont have the right numbers for the L29 though).

The torque curve starts earlier, and is flatter on a big block.

I think you could guess my choice by looking at what I own.
Like I said, my 1999 K2500 Suburban has the Vortec 7400. All I have done is K&N drop in and had a dual exhaust that's duel 3 inch pipes going into a Flowmaster 40 and two 2.5 inch pipes coming out. Put a 5,000 lb trailer behind it and it's like it isn't even there. Unbelievable torque / power out of a mostly stock Suburban. Hands down the best vehicle I have ever owned and if I total it tomorrow I'd be on the lookout for another one. Mines just under 190k miles and the injectors are starting to leak so I have some Bosch III's I am getting ready to put in tomorrow.
