I would never upgrade an LT1 to an LS1, when you can buy a brand new LS2 for 5 Grand shipped to your door, with a 3 Year Warranty.
And since you would need to revamp the entire car to hold the 365ci 400Hp engine, (tranny,entire suspension, rear, and many other things), I would start beefing up the LT1.
As far as the V-6 is concerned, it sounds like a good candidate for a Daily Driver.

Drive the V6 as a beater or sell it to buy a V8 camaro. Swaping in an LT1 would require a lot of time and you are almost certain to run into even a few bumps, but it could be done. If you got everything that you would need (time, space, and tools) and put your mind to it with a Hanes or chiltons manual you could get it done in a few weekends with two guys.
