I've done 4.6 SOHC head swaps and longtubes on a 4.6 DOHC. The LS1 is alot easier to do major mods on. Hell, you don't have to pull the intake off to do a cam. Pull the pushrods and yank the old cam out, in with the new.

You might have a point. i'm not very mechanically inclined to say the least. the only mods i would do to one would be like a cat-back, lid, shifter. But i'm just dreaming anyways....have grad school to pay for. in addition, i hear those new '01 Cobra's are running strong.
