I'm thinking something along these lines:

~280 hp 3.6L DI V6
~380 hp 6.0L L76 V8 -up tuned from the G8 GT
~500-550 hp 6.2L LSA V8 -from the CTS-V, possibly detuned.

I highly doubt that we would see a 430 hp engine coming in at the price GM needs for the base V8. I hope I'm wrong and that I'm 50 hp too low, but look at what the G8 does with its L76. Add a bit more power, take off a bit of weight and you have a car that will beat the SRT8's. Also, it has practically been confirmed that there will be a supercharged Camaro. And we have been told that the LS7 will not be used in the Camaro.
