Default Ls2 Dohc?

Anyone know why Car and Driver showed the LS2 as a double overhead cam 24 valve engine today on their TV program? Rerun maybe?

No kidding. Watch the show again on Sunday, and see if they make the same mistake. Probably will.
Maybe their graphics person is so used to inputting info regarding all the Euro cars they do, they just automatically hit the "DOHC" letters on the keyboard.

I thought the LS2 was a Wankel rotary.

If you know cars, you will notice they make mistakes like that on pretty much every show

Chevy lied to us! The C6 obviously uses a 24-valve V6 now.
