IF the top Camaro comes with a supercharger (I'd say its 50-50 at best) then it is likely going to be the on a 600 hp version of the LS3 with the roots type blower that is going into the super corvette. However, if it doesn't come that way from the factory, I'm sure that there will be an LS3 Camaro from the factory and a supercharger kit that you can buy from GMPP (or any number of other after market suppliers) and install seperately.

Oh, and for those that don't know, a roots supercharger uses a pair of meshing lobes while a whipple uses a pair of screws. Roots are simple, cheap, and easy to make;while whipples are more expensive, more efficient, and harder to make.
