Well that is encouraging. I wouldn't mind having me one of the 25k ls9 supercharged engines in my 2010.

Do you mean a production run of 25 engines or that they will cost $25K more?...

No way they are planning on making 25k supercharged Camaro's. Is the CTS and other supercharged regular production (not LS9) cars possibly being grouped into that number? I think GT500 is ~10k/year and I see this market declining over the next 5 years.

Keep in mind they always build a percentage of extras just in case they need to replace a few under warranty.

In my mind I always assumed that LS A was simply the general term given for the engines designed for Automobiles and the LS T's were the ones designed for Trucks. LS_ (insert a number here) is used to refer to a SPECIFIC engine (such as LS9).
Think about it, why would GM all of a sudden start referring to specific engine designs with ONLY letters as opposed to letters followed by numerals?
LSA and LST being used to refer to general engine types, NOT specific motors seems pretty obvious to me.......or am I missing something?
......and by the way, I doubt that all 25K of the motors in production are destined for the Caddy. This only reinforces my long standing suspicions that GM will surprise us with the "Bad-@ss" being released FIRST year out.

Are there any details of the non ZR-1 LS9? Is it a different supercharger rotor and cheaper internals? I'm confused, I thought the LSA was the cheaper version of the LS9. Educate me, I'm lost and totally confused now with all these different names for these new engines.
