good find on the new design! the sad part is, some people will still say "this sucks cause I wanted to put headers on it."

you just gotta look at em and think, "wait so you want less power, performance, and efficiency....only to then add more weight...just so you can say you spent an extra 600$+ for something that would give you close to what you ALREADY have in stock form?"

What is different between the camaro V6 an the colorado V6 to make the extra 30 hp? The colorado has a different intake manifold and down pipes... And a tune I would imagine.

But are there any internal differences? Asking for a "colorado friend'

Yes, of course there is a rev limiter, the oil temp based limit and in-gear limit tables have 7200 rpm and extreme cutoff is at 7300 rpm on the 3.6 LGX, but it's still possible to money shift a manual car, the limiter can't always catch a very quick mechanical overrev.
