Are there any plans to offer the 302 version of the LT1 engine as regular production

I saw this little piece in the recent Speedville newsletter where the 2018 COPO was discussed.

Quote:
The new 302 racing engine is based on the LT1 engine offered in the 2018 Camaro SS, but built for drag racing with unique components. Its displacement derives from a shorter-stroke crankshaft than the production engine that enables exceptional high-rpm capability.
Will a detuned version ever see fitment in regular production, either as the base SS engine or as some sort of optionally-available choice (not necessarily RPO)?
