I highly doubt the Koreans went with a pushrod V8, but I guess we’ll find out soon.

At least one person can admit that the Korean car maker’s V8 is somewhat stout.

I guess I’m bringing the wrath of the loyal GM fans by suggesting that some other engine might in some way be comparable to their almighty LS1. It’s funny though, I have no problem with the LS1, and although I’ve never owned one, I like and respect the engine.

Dodge will introduce some other car, unless they go under. Another potential result is that the Federal friends business bail-out service will help whichever one of the weakest “Big 3” needs it first.

It could very well be GM.
