Nothing wrong with a LS engine, but be warned that:
1) it will devalue the car
2) make the car harder to sell (many will walk away or low ball you on price).
3) you will hear many disapointed oh sounds when people realize what is in it.

As the owner of a SB car, people who know what a 427 Cobra is, always ask "does it have a 427 in it?" They are always dissappointed but try not to show it. I can only imagine it would be worse with a Chevy in it. If your skin is thick and none of this bothers you, go for it.
