Default Camaro Power Plant

Yeah its another one!

I just wanted to know from some of u guys who have bee keeping up with alot of this stuff.
What is the likly hood that the new Camaro will have a N/A 6.2 450hp or 500hp.
I heard that the new Vette is going to have a superchargerd 6.2 or somethin like that.
Do u think that Chevy will just drop the motor in the car and just restrict the power or do u think they will take the blower off.
I hope take the blower off.

The NA 6.2 is a LS3. The LS3 has 435hp. Its has a good chance of being the motor. It not really detune, just de-rated. The LS1 in C5 vette are the same as the LS1 in 4th gens. I doubt 500hp in a regular line model like a Z-28 or SS; maybe in a limited model like a ZR-1
