I think it would be a close race, did you have an exaust system on the 416?

the 426 is usually torquier than a 416 due to the increased displacement. i love my 426 and personally think it is the way to go, but i have not had much experience with a 416.

i have a 416 and it is fine. havent raced against a 426.

but from what I have heard, either build properly can beat the other that may not be built quite as nicely.
