Well unless you need and plan to use the vett assesory drive I would go with crate ls3 over a pull out ...

For basic ls3 vs ls2 comparison you are better with the ls3 all day

all depends on budget. Ive decided on the ls2 t56 out of a gto for cost reasons. I can pick one of them up for around $5500. I want a ls3/ t56 but we are talking a lot more money. ls3 crate motor is $6200 alone plus i have to buy a trans and whatnot. I really want the ls3 but in order to get my car done quicker I'm going with a sly package. I can always sell the ls2 later and upgrade and this way i already have a trans.

If you were closer i would cut a deal with you on the ls2 auto setup. You can buy the auto setup off of me and ill take the engine lol

The 10K mile Vette LS3 is no deal! Brand new LS3 crate motor with warranty can be had for under $7K delivered if you look hard enough. Some early LS2s are 24X while later ones are 58X engine computers. The LS3 is a strong runner lots more top end power over the LS2.

If everything comes with that GTO package then that would be fine for a daily driver. just get the harness converted and the pcm tuned.

GTO LS2 it the better deal.

I'm installing one now with a 4L65E (same case as 4L60E) in a 69 Camaro. The only tunnel mod required was to clearance the area where the tranny cooler lines attach.

On an LS2 with LS3 heads, intake, same cam, same compression, how much difference would there be from .2 liters?
