Does the chief engineer for Camaro understand engineering challenges? He says no 4 cylinders. I rate his opinion higher than most of the posters on this forum.

Bonus question: Is Al Oppenheiser also one of those obnoxious "V8 only" guys who refuses to get with the times due to obstinacy? Or does the chief engineer for Camaro have valid reasons for wanting to keep the cylinder count high?
