I've got a 72 Chevelle with an LS3/4L70E (new GM Performance Connect & Cruise). It cost me a bundle, but the power and drivability (490 HP) are amazing.

My 68 C10 has a SBC. Will I go LS with it? Probably not, due to the $$$. But it sure is fun to think about! A 490 HP SBC would not be near as drivable and still give me 20 MPG on normal driving.
