You are forgetting that it is going to be hard to keep the 422 crank HP on the ground nevermind 500 WHP.

I am not sure what the final tire size is on the SS but I would suspect it is only going to be like a 255. That is no where near enough rubber to run this sort of power. The vette can do a wide body Z06 coversion and then fit 315's under there. I don't see this being possbile for the camaro. I would think the thickest rubber you will be able to run is 275-285 without hitting the fender well.
