I do believe there will be a 6th gen SS to add the LT-1 in. Afterwards? I see SS going away. The Z-28s purpose unless installed with an LS7 in 6th gen, will be lessened of purpose considering that if not for that engine; there wont be any competition for 5th gen Z vs 6th gen. THe 5th gen Z/28 will be the be all end all of track monster chevrolets.
That doesn't make any sense. The 1969 ZL1 powered Camaros were special order COPO cars. They only built 69 of them. The 5th gen ZL1 is not a special order car, has been built for more than one year and is not limited.

As long as Ford builds a GT500, Chevy needs the ZL1.

The LS7 is dead after the 5th gen. Any 6th gen Z/28 will be LT powered. I don't get why that is so hard to understand.
