I doubt an LSX engine will ever make it beyond crate engine form, isnt it just a block anyways?
Also Arkanian, if you're reffering to the ambient lighting, that comes standard in 2SS and 2LT trims, you just have to get it installed by the dealer or install it yourself since it doesnt come completely hooked up from the factory And GM4Lyfe, i think i remember seeing that post, haha, either way it was a great idea and i totally support it Last but not least i agree, no fake scoops, id rather see a stinger hood than that bulgy hot-wheels inspired Bumblebee hood, but i definatly want to keep it functional, and when i mean functional i mean i want it to serve a purpose rather than just blow air into the engine compartment, hook the intake right up in front of the scoop |

In any event its probaly irrelevant. IF they put the LSA, in they will probably use the rest of the drive train from the CTS-V with its 3.73 gears and it Can handle the Hp. |

At this point im just worried that we're gonna end up with a re-badged, re-skinned CTS-V...havent we seen enough of that from GM already? I dont think i can ever trust re-badging again since it crushed my beloved Pontiac :'(

And this is the info on this lsx-454 it has the new heads and block 6 bolts. GM Performance Parts 19170112 19170112 - LSX454 CRATE ENGINE Email this to a friend 19170112 - GMPP LSX454 620 HP Crate Engine 19170112 Available Late October Detailed Description LSX 454 Crate Engine An engine with 454 cubic inches will always be assosiated with higher performance Chvys, and that tradition continues with the all new LSX454 crate engine. We started with the new LSX bowtie block, stuffed it with an all-forged, super tough rotating assembly, bolted on a pair of our new deep breathing LSX six-bolt cylinder heads and topped of the combination with a high rise intake & four barrel induction system. The new LSX six bolt cylinder heads are based on the race-derived LS7 heads that help deliver more than 500 horsepower in the Corvette Z06. They enable tremendous low end torque and great high RPm power. The LSX 454 is delivered in deluxe form, so you get everything from the carburetor to the water pump (oil pan not included). It also comes dressed with great looking, all new orange powder-coated valve covers with 'LSX 454" logos engraved and painted in black. Note: Oil pan and oil pump pickup are not included. LSX valve covers do not have coil mount provisions, coils will need to be relocated LSX454 Specifications * Engine type - LSX series Gen IV small block V8 * Displacement - 454 CID (7.4L) * Bore & Stroke - 4.185" X 4.125" (106.3mm X 104.8mm) * Block - 19243172 LSX cast iron block with cross bolted 6 bolt main caps * Crankshaft - 19170391 Forged steel * Pistons - 19166958 Forged aluminum * Camshaft - Hydraulic roller - .635" / .635", 236 / 246 duration @ .050" * Cylinder heads - 19201806 Aluminum LSX- LS7 port with 70cc chambers * Valve size - 2.20" titanium intake, 1.61" exhaust * Compression ratio - 11.0:1 * Rocker arms - 1.8:1 aluminum roller trunion * Reccomended fuel - 92 octane * Reluctor wheel - 58X |

You won't because the CTS-V uses the Sigma platform and the Camaro uses the modified Zeta platform.

I really really really dont think you have to worry about that with the Camaro. There are way to many passionate people involved in that program to let the Z/28 be a rebadged cts-v. JMHO
