Put a 6.0ltr LQ4 or LQ9 motor in it instead. Better for spray and much cheaper

take you time and research what you want to do.how many miles on your motor?did you do a compression check?these ls1 motors are great even with 100,000 + miles on them.you could find a use lq9 cheaper then rebuilding your ls1.or find a good shop in your area that is experienced with ls motors.schwanke engines sells ls motors for a good price + shipping.click on the vendors to find what you need>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
