My official "canned response" to this type of thread is; If money is not an option, go with what your heart tells you. If money IS an option, forego the "wants" in favor of the "needs".

To me I've always viewed the LSX block as something for the drag racing community. 2500 horse power? That's drag racing country. If you plan to have your face in the sky for the first 60 feet, then do the LSX engine. For a Pro-Touring car, weight is the big consideration, and for that I would do the LS7. Short on money? Then a warmed over LS3.
