Default Engine Experts, ideas

this is the first time i write over here since my threads are normelly in C6 Zo6 forums...
am going to build an LS engine for my other car, its a nissan patrol 2008, idea is to swap the inline 6 and the weak 5sp to an LS based engine and built 4L60-65.
here is what am looking for:
the car is almost brand new and its my daily:
- so reliblity is a must.
- very good street manners with no big cams.

am looking for the most power i can get with the 2 points i said in mind, it must be strong enough N/A and can stand a 100-150 shot when i need it.
my builder said its going to be either one of the three choises:
1- stock LS7. (505hp)
2- 402. (any where from 500 to 580 hp)
3- LSX ( up to me)
what do you think guys?
