GTO is the easiest out of those options. The Vette isn't too bad unless you need to change the clutch

^^^ Agreed. I've never worked on a GTO but i just did heads,cam, headers on my C5 and it wasn't bad. Get rid of the radiator and fans(10 minutes) and you can stand up in the front. Even headers just kinda SLIDE in. I removed my AIR pump, tubes and crap which made it easier yet. The hardest part in the FRONT of the Vette is removing the steering rack and lines. Otherwise once the rack and radiator/fans are out it's EASY going. I can change plugs and wires on my Vette in 20-25 minutes TOPS. Even easier with headers.~Cole~

GTO hands down easiest. The rearend is a little odd at first but the layout of the car is good.

I havent worked on any other V8 than my fbody. Once I got rid of the EGR, and the air pump w/associated hoses, and cleaned the compartment up, it was amazingly easy to work on.
