debatable. IIRC you need an adapter to run the oldschool trannies with the ls block engines don't you? With that cost, and the fact that most 350s and 400s you find around are tired or need a rebuild I would assume the a 4l60e could still come in as the cheapest option. Besides theres the benefit of having an o/d tranny.
