I would say the only difference is from 1 body style to another .

I thought the spacing was different on LS3's. I am trying to find out some more info on that right now. I was under the impression that the camaro LS3's used truck spacing, and the Corvettes used Corvette spacing.

Camaro ls3 balancer is basically a truck balancer The ls3 vette wet sump is the same offset as the CTSV (04-07) G8 and c5/6 vettes save for dry sump ls3, ls9, and ls7. The dry sump are different.

Vette/gto/cts have the shortest length, camaro is 3/4" longer and truck is 1-1/2" longer. New crate ls3 (wet sump) has the short corvette balancer.

So the crate ls3 is a short balancer, like the ls3 Corvette, but a Camaro ls3 is a long balancer, correct?

It's 3/4" longer, not 1-1/2" like a truck.
