A vehicle with the new LT1 even if it had the same MAX HP as a LS3 would be significantly faster. As the LT1 is way more power under the curve.

Its about time.....that's what Dodge did with the new 392 Hemi in 2011. Gobs of low end torque and still have the upper RPM power with it. If the 6th gen is lighter and they throw this LT1 in it, that will be damn nice!!!
