Australian ls3
Discussion
My sbc has passed away a few days ago and I'm considering my options.
I'm thinking about placing an order with GM motorsports Australia wich seem to have some good
ls3 offers. My main concern is if I go for a 590 or 650 bhp-engine will my G50 gearbox cope with the torque
or should I stay with the 560 ?

prices are in Aussie $ and 10% Australian tax included
Power: 560 HP @ 5750 RPM, 475 ft. lbs. of torque @ 4500 RPM.
Power: 590 HP @ 6000 RPM, 575 ft. lbs. of torque @ 4900 RPM.
HP & Torque: 650 HP / 565 FT LBS
Any advice would be welcomed.

gee its great when the Ozzi dollar tanks 
you might want to check what the actual price is with them. if the website was written when the ozzi dollar was on par with the US then they may have been buying parts cheap. its around 60c to the dollar (USA) at the moment so prices will have gone up by 40%. they are also looking at increasing the GTS/VAT on imported items as well
LSX motors = GM motorsport Australia. I presume that GM keeps it's site up to date...you might want to check what the actual price is with them. if the website was written when the ozzi dollar was on par with the US then they may have been buying parts cheap. its around 60c to the dollar (USA) at the moment so prices will have gone up by 40%. they are also looking at increasing the GTS/VAT on imported items as well
