Well, although I do think it would be lighter up front than the supercharged V8 of the ZL1 given the size & technology of todays turbo's, weight is not the main reason I'd like to see it.
I had the pleasure of owning a 1987 Buick Grand National. Knowing what that car was capable of, and knowing the advancements that have been made since those days, I believe a turbocharged V6 (be it single or twin) would be a great fit for the Camaro. And yes, I think fuel economy will also be a plus.
I'm not saying a turbocharged V6 would ever compare to the ZL1, just looking for an alternative.
A turbo V6, with gearing & suspension upgrades....
