Big thing about pushrods in V8's. They work, they're cheap, and simple. They also make the overall package quite small. Just compare how big the new BA engines are to the Gen 3. 
The Gen IV V8 will have dual cams, but still have pushrods. With 6.2 litres, the Corvette version has been pumping out 360kW, so it still works. That said, the Japs and Europeans have showen the Yanks consistently how to make good engines, e.g. BMW M3, Toyota 6's, Porsche with their Flat 6 (Latest GT3 has 280kW out of a 3.6 N/A flat 6 !!), The Rotary, Porsche 928 etc.
That said, the work is still good and they pay VERY well. How many engineers get paid overtime !!!
