I have been saying to my Camaro friends for awhile I want my LS3 modified to breath better and rev higher. That aside why doesn't GM do it, why don't more modders do it to the LS3?

The higher RPM capability built into the LS7 is one reason that engine is so beloved, why don't they make that engine put out more HP in the Z28 it always seems they leave us just wanting and having to catch up to the Ford guys with our own mods.

Well to be fair, Camaros have always been the lesser brother to the corvettes, no offense here as I love the LS3 but it will never recieve the same goodies.
