There is no replacement for displacement, right?

The new DI V8 will probably be downsized a little, but not a lot. I can say from experience that the 5.0 Coyote does just fine with its Ti-VCT. Admittedly, it does give up a little low-end torque compared to the LS3, but not much. And it gets 28-29 mpg with the cruise set at 70 on the highway.
And keep in mind that the 6th Gen Camaro will likely be downsized as well. You can be sure that the new DI V8 in the 6th gen will have at least the same, if not better, torque to weight and power to weight ratios.
