Pick one, add up the options, tell me what you come up with. And then tell me how much power you can make with even half the money using a Pontiac build.

LS engines have a place in the hobby.
Accessories and motor mounts are another $1335.00 to $1985.00 on the couple LS engines I checked at that link. It also was not clear what ECU was included or not included. Not to mention the tuning/wiring everything. Changing the engine family is a can of worms with every nickle and dime it will take to be done properly.
In my experience HEI/Quadrajet combo is tough to beat for reliability. Doesn't take much to have a spare distributor if I'm going on a trip longer than an hour one way.
