I think a pulley change would get us there. I can't remember the cam specs' on the LSA but I know the SC is smaller, however, the intake/intercooler is more efficient on the LSA than the LS9, from what I've read. Maybe LS9 needs a bigger SC to make up for the inefficiency of the intake as opposed to LSA.

I'm thinking pulley, tune, intake, and catback will be pretty close to LS9 power. Let's just keep our fingers crossed...

I don't think Camaro will come from GM much more than $45K if anything. We've been told again-and-again it wil be comparable to Mustang, so...
