you buy a 215 or its derivatives, tear it down, rebuild it, etc., it's  not 
cheap. The LS series V8s have been out since 1997, or a total of 13 model  
years. I'll bet you'll find a nice, clean, running LS1 for less than you'll  
spend making a nice 215, and it'll be FAR more powerful. 
 
my answer (not from doing it!) is the 215 package ends up being very close  
to the original weight and balance when you get done. it also lends itself 
to a  nice sound , no loss of inside space, easier cooling etc etc.  i have 
seen  a class act installation in a late model , then a similar class act 
job using a  new corvette setup. there are surprises to overcome in any 
installations like  this. even controlling flow to radiator and back...too much 
flow wont leave  enough heat behind ...lots to the fun of such jobs.  just 
throwing cash at  it wont work. takes gobs of hard work also!
