I think your right. the cam difference is only for the lb9 305 tunedport with the manual trann's. They came with the l98 cam insted of the penuat cam.

The cam's and flywheel output are indentical no matter what tranny is behind the engine. However with the manual tranny you will get more hp and tq to the rear wheels because there's less drivetrain loss with the manual transmission.
