No one who wants a V8 engine gives a damn about fuel economy. Especially the minuscule increase you get from the complicated and added expense and decrease in reliability of the VCM system.
Now that the CAFE regulations are relaxed GM should be focusing on making durable V8s with proven reliability with less technology and more mechanical stoutness.
Especially in truck/SUV applications.
