Default Hydro-forming chassis?

Do the latest model Camaros and Firebirds have the same (hydroformed) chassis creation process as the C5 and C6 Corvettes?

Corvette's have a separate frame, since the body is plastic/fiberglass. The new Camaros are going to be unibody cars with no separate frame. So, no, the same process is not used, since the chassis design is totally different.
