Default What to do with this L76? Atleast I think.

I recently came up on this what I believe is the L76 truck 6.0. It is an aluminum block with the l92 heads. Atleast I think. The heads are casting number 823 and have the rectangle ports. It came from a 07 truck and has DOD/AFM junk. I got it for a deal because it needs a cam and lifters. So are these worth much?
I know to get rid of all the afm stuff I need to change a few things, but would be a worthwhile swap for my LT1 Camaro later down the road?
Just weighing the options on keeping it or throwing it on craigslist.

What kind of use would you have with it? Just a normal swap? boost? Maybe some good bolts ons? IMO its worth it, unless you wanna go with something different.

Probably just some bolt ons and cam swap. I just don't know much about lsx's yet. I spend most of my time in the ltx forums. I couldn't come up with much googling, just people praising the heads. Not many people use the aluminum 6.0 block that I've seen. I'll mule it over for a while. It seems like a good place to start for a swap though. I've always wanted my car to be track only.
