Thoughts on rebuild or swap
Hey everyone, it has finally come to that point in time for a complete overhaul of my 2000 WS6 drive-train and engine. I was looking into LSX376/4l60E combos on JEGS that cost around 11-13k. I wanted to see if some of yall could help me choose what course I end up taking. Budget somewhere around the 20-25k mark total. That total would be for everything said and done. Original plan is/was a 376/60e combo for 12k, 3600 stall 1k ish, cam 4-500, 12bolt for 3.5k, and about 6500 for misc stuff and labor. Please feel free to dive in and show me some ideas on how yall would do it, if you had the same budget and same idea. Any info would be much appreciated to help start me on my journey to restore this beaut, like engine builders/suppliers, components etc. Thanks in advance everyone.
Car will be street/dd, mild cam, (think bad a@! DD)

Swap the Fast 90 for a 102 and a Nick Williams 102 TB and have some $$ left over for that $1800 price.
Also include the cost of tuning. $450-650

LS3 gonna need some other stuff to work. Either a stand alone ecm like Holley or a ECM and harness that works with the 58x reluctor wheel. Our 4th gens work on a 24x reluctor wheel as well as a different crank sensor.
Now you could tear it down and swap out the reluctor wheels but that's honestly going backwards or down grading in tuning.
