They did it (according to an article I read) because it cut down the parts count (a lot less nuts and bolts) and also reduced the weight of the engine. Something like 13 lbs per side I think? It's been a while.

All I know is the first Camaro I ever saw up close in person was a 2LS with the LFX (two weeks before I bought my car) and the crazy single down pipe had me scratching my head at first.
