Default Is a LS swap worth it

I have a 2001 Camaro V6 RS that I am wanting to get rid of so that I can buy something better for the winter and I was wondering if it would be worth it to swap a LS in it and then sell it. I know where I can get a cheap 5.3 but would I make more than I have in it? I paid $4k for the car so would I make that much more?
