Imho, stick with the Ls engine... there are alot of things that get easier with that 6.0, clutch and flywheel are oem GM... and are cheap.. a 5-600 Hp clutch for a BBC costs real money.. i mean if you are going to race it anything less than a mcleod street twin or tilton for that BBC is waisting cash, a stock LS7 corvette clutch will get you home in first go... a bbc to t56 bellhousing is spendy! a Junkyard LS/t56 isnt.... heads for a BBC is upwards of 3 grand, for that money you can get L92 heads, a big cam, single plane intake, MSD ignition box and gaskets to perform the swap... throw in alittle extra and you can get an LQ9 longblock...
