LS7 Crate Engine

I have a new project--a 1966 Chevelle. Originally with 396, but now no engine or tranny. So I was thinking a Z06 engine would be cool. GMDirect wants over $17K including tax, but a retailer in California is asking less than $13K for the same motor.
My question--will the modern electronically controlled motor be more difficult to get working properly in an old car than an average crate motor? (I have seen a 427 smallblock made by "World" claiming 505 HP for sale for less than $9000).
Thanks!
Gersh
