Yes, but how will they respond to the Coyote V8?

If that dyno number holds up on customer cars, GM has just been massively owned by the Blue Oval Boyz again.

Never fear...the LS-V8 is not the "be-all and end-all" of SBC. "Stay tuned..."

^Agreed. Personally I think for many people the styling will be a big seller. Sure the engine is a big thing but I don't know I just feel like styling would have more influence. Just my opinion don't flame me for it lol. But I feel like that since Ford did this with the Mustang that GM should do something to one up them. Sure do a little to the engine but I think that they need to do a little shaving on the weight and tweak the suspension just a little ya know nothing major but from what I've read, Mustang handling is preferred by most magazines. But then again I feel like they always put too much pressure on the Camaro that it needs to be superb but yeah just my opinion again.

Remind us the last time a Mustang GT was faster than a Camaro Z28/SS? Considering the 2010 GT is STILL slower than the last iteration of the 4th gen Camaro, I don't think again is very accurate.

With Twin Turbos attached to it...who cares?

I thought they used the 3.6 from the Camaro for that

The R&D for our Nickey FLP Twin Turbo V8 set up was dialed in Last Year.

Finish Line Performance, a.k.a. FLP has engineered and built a tremendous top mount twin turbo set up.

They have also performed extensive testing, with V6-Turbos.

We will have a V6-Turbo set up in the near future.

The Turbo focus right now is getting the Stage III LSX TT ready for Camaro5fest as well as an Inferno Orange TT customer Camaro.

the Blue Oval Boyz aren't getting too excited about that dyno result, there are a lot of issues with that particular dyno, results are highly questionable
