First of all, it won't fit within the CAFE equation (in GT volumes). Second, it will price the car into the stratosphere.

Expect 475-500 hp in special low-volume, high-dollar versions...like Shelby/BOSS-like versions, NOT everyday-in-every-way "average Joe 'n Jane" version GTs... It's already been disclosed that the 5.8 doesn't fit the newbie...

BTW, I do NOT expect the LT1 to be the "standard" SS engine, either...
Why wouldn't it be?
