This Month's Hot Rod Issue

Just got my June issue of Hot Rod, and Mast Performance's 500hp cam and valve springs for the LS3 are in there. So is the Hurst short throw shifter.

I took a look at Mast's website. It's impressive. Thanks for the links.

It's amazing to know that with a cam, valve springs, and cpu tuning you can get 525 hp out of the LS3! And with underdrive pulleys, less restrictive exhaust and cold air kits I would imagine the LS3 capable of nearly matching the CTS-V's LS9 power ratings without a supercharger! Guess I know what's going into my 67 one day!
