I'd be stoked to have that NA 600hp 5.5L LT6 in my next C8 Z06 or Grand Sport.

Sorry for resurrecting this thread from the dead but I am curious about any new feedback regarding the FE RWD LT5 application in the document? It could only be two cars and obviously the Vette aint one of them

Not sure, but could one be the ZR1 Coupe and the other the ZR1 Convertible? Recent testing shows the ZL1 is still very close in performance to the GT500. I am not sure there is any justification for a LT5 Camaro.

I love my 6.2L with the A10. Fast truck. Actually the fastest V8 truck on the market. 0-60 5.4 seconds

I am sure they could bump up the LT4 in the ZL1 by 30-40HP and really get it close.

Unless I read into the document incorrectly I thought it was for new 2021 powertrains. That being said the only two cars the LT5 could be in is the Camaro or some Cadillac V variant

And that is partially why Camaro sales suck, Camaro had a chance to add power in the 2019 refresh to the SS, Camaro needs the LT5 in the ZL1 to be right on Fords butt and overpower the Hellcat 717 hp. Camaro has been doing well performance wise, but not good enough and they need big horsepower #s for the SS and the ZR1 to be on top of the segment.

Waste of time, drop in the LT5 and be done with it and while they are at it pump it to 760 horse to really piss off Ford. Also pump the LT1 to 475 horse and again piss off Ford.
