it is possible, but if GM is thinking that this is their "come back kid" then i dont see why they would make a lot of changes. also since we know the intake and exhaust are different (that to me = 8 hp), the adjustment to the cam would be so minor it wouldnt make any sense (from an economical stand point) to change the internals of the LS3

what it would do is ensure that the vette stays on top of the camaro. which with the cam, you are right, even with the LS1's, the differences were so minimal you couldnt really tell.
