dont need a huge cam... 
LS3 Super Victor
no they do not... there is an intake similar to what a Super Victor would be from Performance Induction Specialties....
In terms of single plane intakes, that seems to be the top of the line, followed by the victor jr, and then the GMPP one.

Apparently it is though because look into the few post's under my name about the single plane 4-Barrel setups cuz the meanest street cars are making the most of the power with a monster cam, big heads, and a single plane with a plate kit... Now i'm buying this setup....
Apparently it isn't. You must not be very knowledgeable of the Edelbrock lineup. The 4150 flanged Victor JUNIOR is out for the L92/LS3 heads. The TALLER 4500 flanged Victor SENIOR has yet to be released.
and yes... throw the biggest cam you can find on a motor with LS3/L92 heads on it. Those heads respond SOOOO well to the "bigger is better" philosophy

Performance Induction Specialties has an awesome intake manifold set-up. I had the GMPP for the L92 heads and sold it after seeing the Performance Induction piece. I have yet to purchase it though, as it costs more than the GMPP intake. I just hope that it will clear the stock cowl-induction hood on my 1969 Camaro. Seems as if there are NOT too many choices for intake manifolds (especially 4-bbl types) for us L92 users.
The bare version is right around twice what the Vic Jr costs? I'd really like to see a cam/head/intake car with a good back to back comparison on something smaller than 400ci. I'm aware of the 60 hp gains seen on the 700hp setups but what would the double cost get someone in a 500ish hp street setup? I too wish the big Vic was out for square port guys probably be the middle ground for everyone hung between the Vic Jr and the PI manifold
When I asked Edelbrock last year, they seemed interested, but I think they're happy with their Victor Jr L92 model. The rep said there were some "super victor" features built into the Jr model already...the only reason it was called Jr was because of the 4150 flange. Atleast that's what I took from the conversation. I plan to try Cary's manifold soon(the unported version). I'm right at the end of my hood clearance(truck with 2" cowl hood) with my GMPP and huge air filter, so I'm gonna have to make some compromises.
If any of you are handy with a welder an LS1 super victor can be made to work. The LS3 and LS1 bolt pattern are in the same location. The roof on the port is also in the same location. The "cathedral" area would have to be ported or opened up square at the top to match the LS3 shape. The port floor of the manifold would have to be filled in with weld (or epoxy). It can be done- I am sure crazier things have been accomplished. Good luck.

The PI single plane is about an inch and change taller than a Super Vic.... though it will cost more, it should out performance the vic. Haven't seen any legit dyno comparisons to say it with 100% conviction but If I had to put my money on one of the two, it would be on the PI single plane.
