Base v8 = LH6 5.3L DoD 310? hp.
upgraded V8 = LS3 450hp.
Camaro SS = a whole lotta Hp.

How is that?
I dunno... I don't think they will have any form of the 5.3 as an option. The 5.3 is strictly a truck engine (if I am not mistaken). my guess would be that they will use the same 6.0L (L76) that they will be using in the G8/Impalas/etc that gets ~360HP.

The Mustang's power is speculated to be ramped up by the time the Camaro comes out to around 350 hp, so the L76 would work much better than the 5.3L.... just my 2 cents.
