Are the SBC's and the BBC's Dead?

[tyoneal]

Hello:

I'm still trying to catch up with new technology so please bear with me.

After reading over and over about the popularity of installing the LSx engines, I'm begining to wonder:

Are the SBC's and the BBC's Dead?

Are the LSx series of engines wildly popular because they are a significant bang for the buck, or are they currently popular because they are the, "In" transplant to have in a modern PT car?

Please help me shed some light on this.

Thanks for your patience.
