LSA 198/216
LS3 204/211

I don't think there is enough difference in overlap to matter at idle. But, I don't currently have access to a LS3 for a test.

I'm with Higgs. I have truned the DFCO off and still had decel poping on LS3 motors. Increasing entry and exit timing lessens the pop. The automatics don't seen to have any noticeable pop.

About 300 HP. Boost starts about 3000 RPM but the real action happens when the VVT kicks in at 4000 RPM. Then the 6 speed auto starts changing gears. It's a blast to drive!
