Default Ls3 crank question

2010 Camaro manual trans comes with LS3
I’m assuming is the exact same ls3 in a 2010 corvette. Doing a stock rebuild on either block as I have 2. I’m replacing the crank with a kit from my local part supplier and they have 2 different part numbers for the crank shaft kit between Camaro and corvette ? What could be different, they have the shafts listed as using the same cores, is something different internally I’m missing?

Manual trans grand sport ls3’s are dry sump, thus a different crank.

Perhaps that’s what they are using for that part # difference.

Agreed. In 2010, you could get a dry sump LS3 in the Grand Sport Vette. Dry sump engine has a longer snout. SSonSpray, if you want to sell one of the blocks, PM me please.
