Which ones?

Are there plans for any SCed Gen V's?

Apologies, we may have gone over this already... but I don't feel like reading back through 8 - 9 pages.

I'll do my best guessing....

1) GenV's should start phasing in with their different versions around '10-'12. Trucks and cars.

2) GenV's will be around when the top Camaros are released, but the higher hp GenV's may not be out by then.

3) AFAIK, all will be GDI.

4) Don't know of any plans for a SC'd Gen V.
