Why couldnt you build a 11-10 second pump gas drive everyday motor with a SBC? I could drive my car every single day and it runs mid 11's when horribly out of tune. Gets like 13mpg with my 3.92's, TH350, and a 3500 stall and only cost me about $2500 to build completely. I'm not saying an LS1 is a bad thing to do but it'd be so much easier and cheaper to build something that'll just bolt right in. You could easily end up spending $8,000+ on a modded LS1 swap... Theres so many easier and cheaper ways to build a bad reliable daily driver type car.
