I did mine on a budget and am now getting around to new heads and intake. I bought a WS6 I am going to do a 6 speed swap too.
My car crossed the spent-way-too-much-money-on threshold years ago after I supercharged the L-98. I fully get where you are coming from on this point.
After banging my head against the wall and wasting a bunch on money on a guy working on the supercharged tune I finally gave up and did the swap.
It's a pretty mild LS and it is head and shoulders faster than the blown L-98. Anyway if you have any more questions please ask I'd love to talk you into doing this :tongue:
By the way, I did all of the work in my garage at home. The only things I hired out was the building of the motor and the tuning. A good friend of my is great with LSX motors so he handled those two tasks for me. Now I didn't have the problems with the ASR and such and I swapped out my digital dash years ago because I liked the look of the analog gauges but I know that it's more than possible to keep all of that.

Good luck.
