L99 to ls3 conversion: Cam question
If I do the L99 to LS3 conversion, do I need to chose a l99 specific cam still? Or can I now use ls3 cams?

Yes if you do the conversion you will use a LS3 cam. They have came along way with VVT cams though. Some really great options to utilize your L99.

L99 to ls3 conversion: Cam question

That's an old wives tale. Think about it, if that were true then most modern advanced performance engines would not run VVT, but they do. So not more power without it, no. As much peak power is possible, definitely. Unlikely without VVT it would have as much power across the RPM range. But it is in tuning the torque model that gives VVT its advantage.
