Your probably talking about the LS6, this would be cost prohibitive, especially right now and probably even a couple years from now. Those enignes are expensive.
And you getting this from a guy who put a LT1 in his 3.4L firebird despite everyone saying that would be cost prohibitive
Not sure if this belongs here though so I won't go into details
