Thanks for all the replies. I had not given consideration to the fact that most engine failures occur on takeoff. The T337 I have looked at would probably be in the 120K range which would not give me much of a reserve for fuel and maint. I would like a P337, mainly for the added sound insulation but only have about 50 hrs in a 337 so do not know if I could even get insured plus even more added expense between annuals and proficiencies. I looked at Nick Nazari's T337 on line and it looks very nice. I see one on ebaymotors as well, same year and model, with low time engines and nice panel but needs paint and interior updating and not asking much less than Nick's. I have not come across any nice normally aspirated 337's with low time engines and updated avionics/paint/interior. I also looked at a Rutan Defiant but it hasn't flown for a few years and he wants as much or more than a 337. I will continue looking and keep any advice coming, I really appreciate it.
Dan
