2018 COPO Camaro Hits The Strip With All-New 302 Racing Eng
 

Sounds like that 302 might be a high rpm screamer.

8,000-9,000 RPM ?

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.

Was gonna say, we are spinning old school 396's over 8000 lol.

These will probably sound like a Super Stock EM or FM when they run.
8000-9000 RPM? -that's funny

Wonder what they would spin if a Super Stocker or Comp Car.

Isn't it already a Super Stock engine? ;-)

Re: 2018 COPO Camaro Hits The Strip With All-New 302 Racing
 

Based on content and overall design of OEM engines & components produced since about 1997 (20 years or so), I'll say no.

I was thinking more along the lines of the street legal production cars in Stk Eliminator.
