4) The new Vette engine 650hp against the 770hp potential SC Viper, I think that if the Viper does get this SC engine it will take the Vette.
Welcome back, rocket403. We missed you.

1) LS3: 430 vs. 426 - the explanation being about 12" more exhaust and different headers (packaging) on the Camaro. Remember, Net hp is WITH accessories and exhaust connected.

2) LSA vs. LS9 - for complete explanation, please consider reading here: http://www.chevrolet.com/performance/crate-engines.html

3) Gen-5 - correct. But, my friend, Gen-6 (LT-capable) is only about 12 short months away, or so. I can see that news gets you EXCITED!

4) FACT vs. conjecture. Please revisit this site when the 770 hp Viper is in the hands of paying customers.

Thanks.
