A good point, but the LT4 only costs a grand (crate engine) more than the LSA that was in the previous car. In contrast...the LT1 is about 4k more than the LS3. So it's not nearly that "premium"...

If GM was able to stomach the upgrade to the LT1 in the SS models, maybe they can figure out the LT4, too....
