What are the chances we see more horsepower for '18 so we have a better chance stock against the stock 16/17 camaro ss

Chances are 50/50. It either will happen, or it won't.

Almost guaranteed that there will be a horsepower bump, as confirmed by some insiders we have here. Expected to have a few minor engine tweaks along with direct injection. We won't know accurate specifics until the official reveal.

Chances are that if there is a hp bump ford will just tell us that there is one but won't share numbers until one to two months before the 18'start start rolling out of Detroit.

It will. More cubes and DI

427 has a nice ring to it.

7.0

Isnt the new hood line a little bit to low for that kind of cubic displacement?

For the Super Duty. Trucks beyond light truck have different regulations and no EPA label.

I remember people were saying the 13-14 GT's were get direct direction..

I bet the 2018 GT will only get a mild hp bump (5-10 horse) but anything is possible.

Chances are we wouldn't see much of a bump since the redesign is coming out in a few years. Raising the ceiling now would make it look bad if they didn't raise it again IMO. 435 is already respective number. Increasing it to even 450 will most likely not make a difference between the two since the SS is slightly lighter, agile and more torque off the line. If they raised it to 450 then what would they need to bump it to for the 2020 model to make people happy? If I were to expect a bump, I'd assume 10-15hp increase at most. However, my assumptions are about as valid as everything else floating on this board about the 2018.

460/430

Given the MT82's net torque advantage, it'll be fast.
