As someone else mentioned...the corvette forums have a wealth of information on modding the LS3.

Based on all my research on those forums...part of my upgrades included using an experienced LS shop (with proven LS3 experience) and also including an upgraded timing chain during the cam swap.

I've had mine upgraded last June...with only 800 miles on the car...and I have about 5.5k on the clock now without issues.
