Gen 5 Camaro Internal Engine Tech - 2010 Camaro Shootout at LSX Shootout III

Just picked this off off the NMCA site. Not sure if you all get a chance to check out the LSX Shootout section but this is big so figured I put this here.

Is that a type-o where it says you must have an LS or LLT (V-6)- based motor?

Or should it read along the lines of LSx and V6 motors are allowed?

yeah it is along the lines of you can run the v6 or the ls based motor..comes with ls3 right?

I think if you were to put another ls based motor, like the LSX or LS9 in it would be legal.

Can you get some clarification for us on that? It'd be alot more interesting if more cubes and LSx stuff was allowed, I'm sure!

Okay. I will ask NMCAJeff to come take a look here.

So did anything ever come of this? is it a V-6 only Class or what's the deal?

Hmm, I sent him an email. Will try again

As far as we are concerned - ANY LS based motor is allowed (LSX, iron, etc)

Nice information here

first person with a 500ci ERL block wins

or are they even allowed?

All of our ERL LS series blocks are allowed because they are GM LS based blocks.

Cool deal, were working on some race half shafts for a few customers that are planning on racing this event. Should be some good times!

Thanks
Chris

I plan on entering my SS, it sure would be nice to have a roll call to see who all plans on racing so I can figure out if I can make it more than one round. ;)

I'll be bringing 2 cars though, so maybe 1 round in the new SS & one round in the Street Class. ;)
