I looked at it hard at one time too, and came to the same conclusion. You will get more power, and cheaper, going the traditional Pontiac power route. So I did, and proved it.

To get comparable power from the LS costs money. And don't try to sell me 'you can grab a truck LS for $xxx and do it cheap'. Seen too many failures by those taking that route.
