The new, LSX block is <$2k. The L92 heads are KILLER, right out of the box. And, are <$200 ea, bare.
Add a good crank, rods, pistons, [A must for a 300 shot!], and UR GTG..
Take a look at the Jan 08 issue of Chevy HP. A good back to back comparo of the old school, vs the gen 4 engine. Pretty easy choice, since you mentioned a streeter and 9's.
everything on a ls motor is based on a sbc. I dont know how u could say LS is light yrs ahead of sbc maybe if it had dohc,vvt,etc .

ive seen sbc in the low 6`s. not bad for old technology
