I don't think fitting the engine in was the reason for not building the LS6 or LS7 cars. The Corvette already had the L88 cowl hood and they could have easily produced the 70 Camaro cowl hood. I think the low LS6 intake was to fit under the standard Corvette BB hood. There were a lot of problems with the 70 Camaro Corvette being late so some options got the axe. They were working on a LS7 option and an alu. 454 option that I think was going to be called LT2.
