I can tell you how a small block chevy handles on the "twistys". Cast iron block weighs more than aluminium block, but it depends on the installation. Every single LS-series kit I've seen places the engine very high. I went custom for best weight distribution.

No one can help you there. Sign up for driving school.

I can tell you that you will want to save up at least $15k. Not only is the drivetrain expensive, but you'll need supporting mods. Things add up very quickly.
