Chevy using racing for production engines

Yeah, they're going to use an Indy engine in the Camaro right after they put a Nascar engine into the Corvette

Why be a dick DG?
The LFX engine looks like it is heading in the turbo direction. Check out the new head/exhaust design. There is a large history of crossover between racing and production.
I'm excited for what might come next for the V6's.

I was at the 500 this year and Chevy had a really big display of Camaros, Corvettes and performance parts in front of the museum. It's cool to see them back at Indy.
