Yes, because GM introduced a 2006 Camaro concept with a 400HP LS2 engine that looked like it was going into production. And the 'vette (which the Camaro gets it's engines from) was due to get the new LS3 in 2008, so yeah, Ford started working on the Coyote in '07.

Anyway, speaking of powerplants, have we heard anything on updates to LT1? I know the L86's are recieving updates, but I can't recall if those were to be incorporated to LT1's.

Or will these updates result in a potential LT2?
I doubt there will be an LT2 introduced in the Gen6 Refresh. As stated above, the Camaro generally gets it's engines from the 'vette, and if the 2019 Camaro was going to get an LT2, the 'vette would already have it or also get it in 2019. But, the 2019 'vette has been announced with no changes to the engine (IIRC). We may see the new 10-speed auto though.
