While the LS is going to be alot easier to derive power and tq from, the LS is heavier than what i am already considering heavy..Sure the LS is a VERY LIGHT V8.. But even still heavier. But at the same time, If i just did a rebuild and kept LS cams and crank.. Boosted LS1-s14 would be THE FUCKIN MOST INSANE THING EVER. AND i could still have a car with 25+mpg to drive around town.

And on the reverse fact. I could sell out lots of the stuff i already have for the KA build, and use that chunk to afford the LS1 swap, and possibly boost the LS1
