Many were saying that this new low cost V8 would be missing a lot of those things. some were saying NO the V8 should be the same as the SS. Do we have that answer yet ?
Thanks

It has the same suspension but like many of us guessed, it does not have the same cooling. No external engine oil cooler, no extra capacity cooling system, no auxiliary engine coolant cooler, no rear diff cooler.
It does have Brembos but FRONT only. Rear brakes are standard LT brakes.
It really is a base LT with the LT1 V8 dropped in. The only real upgrades(other than engine and transmission) over the LT are the base SS suspension, the front Brembos and the 20" wheels(instead of 18").
