I see you are in Oklahoma. I don't know if XP Racing (Brett) works on LT1s, but if they don't, they can point you in the right direction.

When I had two spun bearings, I needed my cylinders to be bored out to 0.040" over, the cam polished, and the shortblock reassembled. That cost me $1200 in 2009. Just to give you a basic idea.

Sorry - I forget to visit the 4th gen section. Yes it was a shop that did all the work and rebuilt the short block.
