Yes, but engine ratings don't depend on the engine alone. The entire airpath, from the air intake to exhaust tip, plays a role. It makes perfect sense to me for the Camaro to have the most free flowing setup compared to sedans, trucks, & luxury cars that might be using the same engine. On top of that there might be a little bit of wiggle room in the tuning of the engine for one application to the next which could contribute a bit. But for the most part, I'd put the blame on the bits leading to & from the engine.
