More hp and less weight. Lfx will definitely win stock for stock. Heres the link I found this info http://www.automobile-catalog.com/ca...amaro_1ls.html

The original LLT HP number of 304 was an estimate, based off of its use in other vehicles and the changes for use in the Camaro application. The following year, after Ford came out with the 305 HP V6 Mustang, Chevy decided to actually get the HP numbers certified.

Lo and behold, it came back at 312, magically putting the Camaro back on top. So the LLT has made 312 all along, not 304, although 2010 V6 Camaros were all listed as 304.

Totally risking the possibility of sounding like an idiot but is that for real?

If the LFX has 323 HP at the crank, it's not a stretch to get to 340 with an intake. I'd venture to guess that most intakes will add around 10-15 rwhp (10 is probably more realistic) if they're well designed. So maaaybe you'd end up with 17 extra HP at the crank. A more conservative guess would be in the 330's. Keep in mind, that's at the engine. The actual amount to the wheels is much less.

My CAI says 16 hp gain so 339 rounded up to 340 sounds better haha im sure my ported throttle body gives it the extra 1 HP
