Quamen the vk5.6 is a us only engine. I know you Definately have the better end of the deal since my car still isn't done. I am building mine as Robert frost would put it, the road less traveled.

That being said an ls swap for 20k would be less headache and more power than the VK swap.

20k is not that of a bad deal for paying a shop to do the complete swap. LS1 swap is about $4500. My ls1 build is costing me $6k just in performance parts (heads, cam, intake manifold, throttle body, etc..), plus i need a mount kit, custom y or h pipe, hp tuners, a tune, and so on. I have a feeling i will finish up somewhere around 15k-16k, and thats with me doing all the labor.
