It was only two years ago you were convinced that all the LTx development was consolidated into the LT1 and LT4 with fewer models as the result. Chevy performance has changed its stance toward Camaro and has dominated the segment in this generation. With nothing Camaro related known now for 20/21, it's reasonable to expect another halo Camaro will appear.

btw. I too am not a fan of the 1.7L SC on the LT4. Big mistake that Camaro had to adopt but overall Camaro wins from GM's larger performance envelope.
