Is the SPS all brand new parts? If not, you can do much better price wise. A used 5.3 and 4l60e can be had for under $1500 complete. Then depending on what else is needed, if anything, your looking at about $100 for a programmed PCM and about $3-500 for a ready to go harness if the motor didn't come with one. The 6.0's can be had for about the same, throw a small cam in and your at 400hp easy.
