Shaun's 320 likely is the reason he's here....
Forgot to respond to this, I think the M156 6.2L V8 is one of the greatest engines ever made. All three of mine were pre-2012 in the head bolt danger zone and all were excellent. I monitored mine via oil analysis but you can pretty easily DIY replace the bolts one at a time. The way they sound, the low end torque, and the way they rev is epic for an NA V8. I will absolutely own another at some point.
