The thing is that a turbo, most likely twin-turbo V-6 is going to weigh more than the LS3 and upcoming D.I. 5.5L V-8. That is why the LS1/2/3 is such a popular swap because it's compact and lightweight. The LS3 is 10lbs lighter than the new Ford 5.0. It is also slightly lighter than a 13B with the twin turbos and piping from the RX-7. The current 3.6L V-6 in the Camaro weighs 370 lbs. Now add twin turbos, intercooler, piping, etc and it will weigh more than the V-8.
