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...

One word: BRAKES. My e350 front brakes just suck. I'm on my 4th set of front brake rotor/ calipers. 3 Rd set of front brake lines. Learned to just replace lines when doing a brake job. 115k miles. Rears still have 50% (drum) shoes left. Twice I've had front right caliper lock after a hard brake. Just takes 2 blocks to start smoking! Pull off an let cool down, then limp to nearest repair. Bigger is better in most regards.
