Need input on drivetrain dilemma/Poll

[jamesjones]

Ok here we go. I have a 72 K5 Blazer that is in need of general restoration. First I want to decide on the drivetrain. I already have a good running GM Goodwrench 350 replacement engine. The Blazer is going to be daily driven to get me to work and back, cruise around town, tow a sandcar, tow a couple of jet skis and maybe burn a few ricers here and there. It's going to have an 8" Skyjacker lift and 35x14.5x15 SSR's 15x14 Weld Outbacks. Here are the options I'm currently looking at (I'm keeping the 205 on all);

1. 5.7LS1/4l60e
2. 6.0LQ9 or 6.0LQ4/4l60e
3. Goodwrench350wTPI/700r4

Here's the categories I've come up with and how I've ranked each combo so far.

Horsepower- 1.5.7LS1 2.6.0LQ 3.Goodwrench

Weight- 1.5.7LS1 2. 6.0LQ 3.Goodwrench

What do you guys and gals think? Any info and input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
