Having had to fix quite a few of these gems I would highly reccomend continuing your search and finding something better. An ls engine comes to mind first especially if you want fuel injection.
They are NOT problematic engines. The 4.1's and 4.5's were. "Caddy electronics"? You do know it's just a GM built engine with 4T60e trans, right? 20k with reliability issues? I'm not worried. LS1 engine? Not quite original enough for me. Thanks for the advice, though.
