I think it's to early to assume anything about the LT1 fuel economy in the Camaro.

The industry trend as a whole is moving away from V8 powerplants and are moving to boosted 6's.

Beyond low production, >5,000 a year, it's going to be increasingly harder to get a V8 past 2025. In fact it wouldn't shock me if by 2025 the only GM product you will find a V8 in is the Corvette, and even then in HiPo versions.

Real world fuel economy means nothing at all to CAFE, it's all test cell numbers.
