Default Ls3

Saw a video the other day, scraplife I think, where they said that Camaros with MT had LS3s, but the ATs had an L something with cylinder deactivation.
Is that also true with C6 Corvettes?

Nope, all LS3 Corvettes are the same, unless you have a MN6 GS which gets a handbuilt dry sump LS3.
The C7 was the first Corvette with DOD.

Fortunately none of the C6’s had cylinder deactivation

Camaros with the automatic were only 400hp too, versus 430 for manual trans.
