Default New guy from Oklahoma

Hey everyone, I am about to get into the corvette game for the first time and I'm after an LS3 Vette. I currently have a Prostreet '63 Chevy Nova with a BBC and am currently selling it. I am a big fan of LS motors and considered just doing an LS swap into my nova, but decided I just want to get a newer, more comfortable car with an LS setup in it already because the nova isn't exactly the most street friendly or comfortable car, and my main want is a car that has a lot of power but can still drive anywhere I want it to. My goal is pretty simple. I want to find an LS3 A6 car and make 500rwhp with a cam and bolt ons only. My nova runs 10.40s as it is and I would like to be in the 10s with a vette that I can drive all over the place.
