E350 vs E450 chassis pros and cons for a short 24 ft class C

If one were looking to get a 24 ft Class C is there any advantage to get the E450 chassis over the more common E350? Is the HP increased in the 450? Ride quality stiffer? Front end components more rob...

The 350 and 450 have the exact same engine and transmission. The 6.8L V-10 found on both has 305 HP at 4250 rpm and 420# of torque at 3,250 rpm. No, they are not similar to the trucks as they are completely different animals. The E-350/450 are cut away van chassis' and the pickup trucks are well... trucks.
