Default ls3-480 hot cam

Hi, looking at an LS3 with hot cam for my 69 Camaro. I am wondering if I would be better off getting the stock LS3 and using a different cam and springs. From what I have found in my search, there are better cam setups but I would also void the warranty. Car will be pretty much a street only setup, so I am looking for something with mild manners but have a little whupass occasionally to disappoint the new Challengers and Mustangs. Any suggestions?

The LS376/480 is not a bad option at all. Well mannered 480hp should deliver plenty of said whupass! And, we can send you a pre-programmed controller kit, which would include computer, accelerator pedal, sensors, and a manual, making the install much more simple!!

GMPP also offers a 515 hp version of the LS3, if 480 isn't enough . Carb'd style intake and a ASA Camshaft.

Give me a call or shoot me a PM/E-Mail for pricing!

instead of a carb'd intake, what would the HP rating be with a FAST LXr?
