Russ O’Blenes (quoted in the article) is my boss.

I’m in a different group than the COPO guys but we all report up to Russ.

Agreed. The future won't be stopped but Chevrolet is bad about recycling things like this (LS-6, LT-1, etc.).

I think these cars and this technology will be cost prohibitive for a while. I know it will be for me.
