There was someone here recently that was trying to sell a thick saddle bare 400 block without main caps for $700. Now, I agree that the thick saddle is the one you want for high power but $700? This was on CL. I don't know if he ever sold it.
Man, that argument is totally splittin hairs. You can do 700 HP out of any big block block. It's not like the ones without the thick main webs are gonna break before the thin ones. I don't think it makes that much difference. Sorta like ALL the 8 3/4 cases are about the same strength. Some people think the 741 is weak. It's a moot point because they are all so close in strength, the difference isn't arguable to anyone with common sense. Same with the 400 blocks. It's all a bunch of forum and magazine bullshit.
