Default Ok... final decision... help me decide!

I have an Eagle 4.000" stroke crank and am debating on a 408ci iron motor about 11.0:1 or an 11.5:1 aluminum 383ci motor..I HATE weight..but I love cubes I have acess to both blocks for the same cost..Free but I am just constantly changing my mind..I hate the fact of being under square (3.905"/4.000") but aluminum is so light! It is a daily driver and a daily racer as well...will be backed by a TH-400 with a 3800 stall..Help me decide
