so the ls3 essentially acts better with bolt on than the ls2 and yea the ls2 does pretty low on the dynoing at the wheels... well for the gtos anyways... idk but the 6.2 would basically the same block that comes in the 07 denali or the 07 escalade... and has any one heard what engine they are gonna go with for the camaro... ls2 or ls3... i heard the concept had the ls2 but if they are coming out with the ls3 wouldnt they just us that? or my guess go with the detuned version of the ls2 like the pontiac G8 is gonna have for the z28 version than the ls3 for the SS version.... that would make sense right?

That's interesting. Wouldn't happen to have a p/n, would you?
