Now I will get a 2010 v6 ( daily driver) and a 2011 SS (HUD + show car) which seems to be a weird trend of mine. ( i seem to buy my fbodies in v6/v8 sets a year apart by chance)

The Z28 seems to be a vette killer, but GM wouldnt do it.. makes no buisness sense
Well, Here's what Ed Peper said about that very thing.

Duhh Because theyre making the LSA better for the Z28 when it comes out for the 45th Anniversary of the camaro. R&D is probably just testing designs from different gens. Isnt it oblivious?

BTW post 444.

buuuuuuuut..... if gm wanted to make a limited run SUPER BAD ASS STOMP A HOLE IN YOUR COMPETITION'S ASS Z28 and decided to put an LS9 in it....well, there's your 650hp right there.


tho i agree that its very unlikely that they will do the LS9 in the Z28, someone will do it... whether it be GM or not
