good idea...it gives me a better chance of locating one

Caddy motors belong in Caddy's. My '53 is begging for a STS-V swap.

BTW, IAAI has a STS-V listed in Los Angeles. Theft/Stripped. Car #3372992. Not sure if it still has an engine.

The LS1 engines are quite compact dimensionally, the dual overhead cam design of the STS-v maybe too large. Fun fact, do you guys know that an LS1 5.7 is lighter then the RX-7 (FD) 1.3 liter rotary engine with factory twin turbos?
