RE: camaro
DL how many CIs are those engines? [8D]I assume the GT is like a 550 something? Haha
Nobody knows anything solid yet. All I can say is that, yes the Mustang is getting a power boost. The v6 in the camaro has less torque and the car weighs more, so it will not be "putting hurt" so to speak on s197 GT's. They won't be a walk in the park to beat, but the current v8 should be able to keep the camaro v6 in line.

RE: camaro
Where do people keep getting 400+ HP for the eco boost? I was so sure the number was 340 for the engine that is actually in production.
There is a "TwinForce" the makes 430 that was in the Lincoln MKR Concept. The 415 HP ecoboost is only an estimated power number and is so far only in the Ford Explorer America Concept and Lincoln MKT concept.
On the topic of ecoboost, what are other companies doing to boost their fleet gas mileage? GM just seems to be making a bunch of smaller I4 cars and Chrysler is doing, well nothing as far as I can tell...

Saw a crash test of one of those... Evidently the chinese believe that space between the seat and the pedals is a nice place to put a crumple zone.
