Motortrend - Inside the LS3
 
http://www.motortrend.com/features/a...709_ls3_engine

The immortal Chevy small block has been extensively revised. Again. In this latest LS3 iteration, a 0.06-inch increase in bore bumps displacement from the LS2's 6.0 to 6.2 liters. But it took way more than a little cylinder-bore honing to wring another 30-36 horsepower out of this venerable engine. Improvements in breathing, lowering the reciprocating masses, and strengthening the block all played important roles in this redesign.

is this only gonne be used in the corvettes? because ive heard a few places these are going in the new Camaros but Chevy.com has the new Camaro listed as using the LS2

i would hate to see the Camaro be reborn with an engine thats already been out and in other cars for years

God is very good to us, building us another motor like this. We must sacrifice 10 imports in his name. :D
