Ok, I may have exaggerated a bit, but it is an very growing trend, especially in "handling/Pro-Touring" type of cars, wich is the case here, not only American cars but all brands.
And I think it`s cooler to have an Hot Rodded brand-X-engine than an "bolt-in" LS (even though it is often better)
I do like LS motors! Even if it do not seem like that. I like ALL engines.
But for usability and overall performance an stockish LS is probably hard to beat in comparison. I would use what I have, it is already running and fits in the car. $$ adds up fast probably. It is often too much camshaft that ruins usability the most anyway.
Do what makes you the most happy, thats whats important. And not what others think.
