Default LT1/LS3 build

So Im planning on doing a swap into a Nova in the future. I was looking at texas speed for the motor build. I wanted to know if the newer LT1 block has any advantage over the LS3 block if your going to put a carb on the engine? Any advantage of one over the other with this setup?

Get a 5.3 if you are going to put a carb on it. These engines are "state of the art" and deserve the best technology available to utilize their potential. FWIW
