My canam SBC EFI engine is up for a refresh and was just toying with the idea of replacing with a fairly standard LS3. I must say that the engine has been (and still is) good and I built before LS and EFI became the way to go!

Use of the car is mainly touring in France and the occasional trackday or sprint.

So, my questions are:
1 Has anyone gone through the process and/or done a costings spreadsheet that they would be willing to share?
2 Recommended suppliers for LS3?
3 Is it necessary to go dry sump for the LS3?
4 CAT or non-CAT?
5 Can I retain my gearbox with right hand shift cos I prefer it.

Thx
