If the Camaro gets its own engine or works it out where they will share an engine with the ATS V replacement (I can see that happening) then they should aim to set a new high water mark for production OHV engines. Go for at least 7,500rpms (maybe higher), they can use a 5.3L V-8 but honestly I like the idea of a 4 inch bore and 3 inch stroke 5.0L V-8. With the bore of the 6.2L engine they can put some heads on it the approaches 400CFM of flow on the intake side of things. Look at the Coyote engine, even ported heads are pushing around 340CFM of flow while stock is pushing 298CFM of flow (I believe first gen heads). Stock LS3 heads will flow 314CFM and would fit on said 5.0L engine meaning you have a 5.0 2 valve head with more flow then Fords 4 valve 5.0L head. I have seen on the net ported LS3 heads and after market casting pushing close to 400CFM. Put that on a 5.0L LT motor combined with some rpm and you would make huge power.
