Default Looking for a Motor swap soon

I was thinking maybe an LS6 swap or an Lq4 or lq9 swap. what are yalls opinions on this and pros and cons on either or. if i did swap anything i would def go to like lkq and pick up a motor and build the motor i want with heads n cam n new goodies.

Just stay with your LS6, put a good set of heads, cam,intake on it, and make 450HP Youll be happy. Plus the aluminum block will keep 90 lbs off the nose that one of those Iron blocks will add.
