That was my point.....

Everyone is getting more factory power and GM has put us on hold/cutting us loose while playing with this electric car fallacy that no one really wants.

I'm surprised someone on a Camaro forum is against shoving a bigger motor in a mid-size truck or smaller car - that is what created muscle cars!



Popping a bigger motor in a 'non-approved' chassis is what the era was all about! It led to the Camaro!


Now a powerful but smaller motor isn't bad either, more power - more good.

Yep.

John DeLorean developed the GTO in secret, on his own time, because it was a policy at GM at the time that their big engines for their big cars do not go into their small cars. John said “oh yeah? Watch me”

Because it would make their precious Camaro inferior.

It blows my mind the LT5 sits on the shelf when it is a no brainer for the ZL1.

Oh, and the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is getting an "updated 6.2L supercharged" engine. So what is that? An evolved LT4? The LT5?
Meanwhile, crickets for the Camaro.
