Depends on what you want it for. If you want to go fast for less...get the LS1. If your just looking for a cool car to ride around in...buy the one you like after driving each.
*edit* I just noticed you said to build it for mederate drag and 400 hp to run 11s. I would say LS1. You could get 410-440 rwhp with bolt ons, cam, and heads, and run deep deep 11s all motor.
Or even just bolt ons and cam and still run high 11s no problem.
