| So what do you guys think about the new LS3? Looks pretty incredible and should be strong. 6.2L... wow. |

Clsoe to 500 at the wheels with bolt-ons and cam.
Impressive.
GM enjoys upping the bar on their N/A motors.

Ha I that motor makes me wish I had waited 6 months to buy my C6. Those things stock seem to be getting as much RWHP as a headers intake tune and sometimes more LS2.

They're nice. I imagine the new Z06 will be even more powerful
Next year I need to get cam and headers on my Z06. These new vettes are making my Z06 look slow lol!

Be sure to get some good springs. Turns out that was what bit mine. Bent some valves on the way to 11.81...  |

Those problems are said to be solved.
Sounds like it was a bad batch...scary though. Could be death for plenty of motors.

It could be death for me. i can't afford a new motor out of my pocket
I guess I could sue the springs maker for a new motor...and LS3!!!
