LS6 or SC?

Ok guys help me out!
I have located a LS6 engine with about 80k miles on it. It is in a totaled Z06 at a junkyard. I have convinced the owner to sell it to me for $5000 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . I am not sure if i should get the engine or a new Supercharger (ATI 's PSC-1 w/ intercooler). Which would be better for my 00 Z28. My engine is fairly new with only 28k miles on it.

OR you can buy an LS1 motor from newer model F-Bodies that has the LS6 block and then have heads/cam work done on it. That's what I would do.
