Re: ls3 or l99

LS3 = manual transmission, no Active Fuel Management
L99 = automatic transmission with Active Fuel Management

Re: ls3 or l99

The more wordy difference is they have different heads and cams. The LS3 has a more aggressive profile but the L99 is set up for the Displacement on Demand. If you plan to mod just be aware that some paths will require you to replace a lot of the L99's parts to get the greatest potential out of it where with the LS3 you can get buy with less.
