BUT, in a corvette. unless you love the way it looks, there is little reason to spend the excess money to get it for a camaro.

It ought to at least be as capable as a 1:1 rear drive Maggie TVS2300. Or at least as capable as an older TVS2300 front drive. With a 3.1 or 3.2" front pulley, either of those can do high 600's rwhp on a well put together LS3. Isn't there supposed to be some "magic" with the new intercooler system? I think your hp est is a tad low for the new TVS. I do agree that the pulley system necessary for 1000 hp wouldn't be able to be recreated anywhere except on a dyno motor.
