Don't blame you on the LS. I've wanted a BB C10 since I was 15 but afraid I won't drive it as much. LS seems to be the best of both worlds. Unless you are worried about weight I wouldn't spend the premium for a LS1. Get 6.0 and swap a LS6 intake. They can be found pretty cheap.
I'm only thinking about an LS1 if one falls into my lap in the right price range because then I wouldn't have to switch the intake or the oil pan. With my dropmember I have to run the fbody oil pan for proper clearance. I'm most likely going to run a 5.3/6.0, I would rather the 6.0 but it depends on how much I find one for and what the budget looks like at the time.
