I'm sure I would get tormented for having a half breed and would feel bad... until I punched it.

LS swapping is actually really expensive, you need to buy a jazzed up one to make it worth it, and the swap kits themselves are usually 3-5k and install is gonna murder your pocketbook. it ends up costing 10-30k all said and done to get the gauges and power-steering, and wiring, and exhaust, and drive shaft, and mounts, engine and transmission + work to bring them up to the performance level, bigger clutch and 5-10k in labor. If you DIY it yeah can save a lot of money but it ends up coming down to not that many people can actually DIY that.
