I'm hoping that the 3.7 mustang forces chevy to offer a track pack for the LLT Camaro.

I'm sure this car will weigh a decent amount more. DOHC and 6-speed trans weighs more than SOHC and 5 speed trans. There are more moving parts, it's simple science. Let's not forget bigger brakes to slow the car, beefier clutch to handle the added power, more frame bracing and I would imagine the rear tire would get wider than the standard 245's offered now. If you think the car could add almost 100hp with more tecnology and added moving parts and not gain at least 100lbs. then you're crazy.
