    Great video. I may be buying a L99 2011 Camaro which aparently has had the computer "flashed" so it's now full time V8 and no V4 fuel saving anymore. Do they last ok having this done to them and is it a good idea?

      I’ve personally had no idea since I’ve never had an L99 (6AT), only an LS3 (6MT). But on a somewhat unrelated note, I know I have a V6 Accord 6AT that uses VCM (variable cylinder management). It greatly reduces the stress on the hydraulic motor mounts, which are mainly used for the AT model cars.
      It of course eliminates fuel economy, in trade for more active power and throttle response. Some people have also had carbon buildup and other oil leak issues from the cylinder deactivation. But deactivating them solved MOST of those issues, but not all, as always..

    Excellent RWHP numbers. I have a L99 converted to LS3 but mine is running at 433 rwhp. How did you manage to get it at 460? Here my current mods.

      Maybe because this car in the video has a different (edit-manifold) intake. Is your intake stock or the same as in the video

      Good work inst cheap work.
      I would have to say at least 10k because he took the trans and motor out. He said he took the block to a short block to they did a ton of work. It was probably also re ringed, bearings and all that good stuff. It was an old girl 94k. If it was mine and he was already in it I would’ve almost rebuilt it.

    What happens if you swap out the whole engine and put a full assemble ls3? Does it need a tune?

    Is it worth swapping to ls3 ?

    • @ApeMotorsports
      @ApeMotorsports  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      We do these conversions on l99's to make the valvetrain more reliable with bigger camshafts. The stock l99 lifters can't handle the increased valve spring pressure with the stiffer springs we install. The stiffer springs are required with the higher lift cam.
