At least we can say the GT500 has its OWN UNIQUE power-plant unlike the ZL1 and SS.
I think you may need to do a little research regarding the differences between the LS3 and the LSA.

The LSA has an upgraded block, a forged crank, heavy duty powdered metal connection rods, a lower compression ratio, hypereutectic pistons, oil squirters, and stronger cylinder heads, among other differences from the LS3. The LSA is definitely not simply an LS3 with a supercharger.
