As God is my witness, I swear this is a true story. At the Houston auto show last year, I went up to a lady at the Chevy display where they were showing a Trailblazer. I asked if it was going to be offered with the 5.3 liter DOD V8 (as I had read in a magazine). She told me she didn't think it was going to be offered because the DOD version would not fit in the engine compartment (the non-DOD was already an option in it).

Thanks for the response. Sorry to beat that horse on your website. I just sold my 02 Z06 and plan to buy early next year. I wasn't sure if anyting had been published. Thanks to those who really responded to a fellow members question.

It was in the latest versions of Motortrend and I think Car&Driver the new LS3 '08 engine would only have 403hp. Whether it was a typo (430) or there a just quoting what the LS3 makes in other vehicles I do not know.
I can't see them changing engines for 3 (documented) horsepower.
