Default LS3 98 Z28 vs. LS3 C6 Vette

OK, guys. I am looking real hard at doing the LS3 376/480 crate in my car (mods in sig).

With LPE's converter, life got easier for this swap. Even with the Hot Cam, it seems to be everything I want: great power and torque, stock-ish idle and MPG, good spring life, warranty, fresh parts, etc. I also think with my bolt ons it may put down 425 rwhp and similar torque. Think this would be enough to take an LS3 Vette, provided a decent launch and good shifting?

(I think it may go 450/450 once I could add a FAST 102/102, a 100mm+ MAF and lid combo later this year.)

Thoughts?

Check out the latest issue of GM High-Tech. They did this same swap and the car made 434/432.
