well the 5.3/4L60E is for my 63 Nova Convertible that is going to be a cruizer PT style 350-400 horse and is more then enough for it and I wanted to use the 5.3 so I can say I have a 327 in it LOL. My 68 Camaro is definetely getting much bigger motor with L92 heads, that car I'm looking at 550+ horse. Even starting from scratch building a 5.3 is much much cheaper then building a 6.2 or bigger motor. The 5.3 will be built with all factory parts (I got good contacts on getting a lot of the parts cheap also) The 5.3 will easily cost me less then half of what the 6.2 for the Camaro will cost. (I'm talking basic motors here)
obviously computer, harness etc are pretty much the same price for any LS motor no matter what you run so I totally see where your coming from there.
