There's a really good explanation of the pros and cons of each on the ARE website, www.are.com.au

Tube and fin have a fair bit better flow. Bar and plate have a better cooling co-efficient, by about 30% for the same size tube and fin.

So you gotta have a 4.5inch thick bar and plate to get it to flow as well as a 75mm tube and fin.

I'm getting a tube and fin made up at the moment and just went through all the pro's and cons of both but that is the short and curly's of it.
