Default GM documentation on new engine sizes (6.4L), and also including new v12....

Much speculation on the new C6 has been going on. Mervzs (a user on CF seems to have inside information. Here is the GM RPO codes for several new engines. Ones to note are the new LS7 and the LTS and LTT

Perhaps this is the line of engines that Cadillac has been developing for their supercar. I know its supposed to be a V12 that uses a similar design to that V16 they put in the Cadillac Sixteen concept car that toured the auto shows this year.

A 4.125 bore GM block would be awesome!

6.4L, is GM finally going to come out with a factory 4.125" bore block that is interchangeable with ours AND is affordable? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

yeah...the fact that the LT5 is there is rather odd. I was under the impression that the crate motor is no longer available. Seems strange. And a 6.4 could just as well be a stroker as a 4.125" bore... weird.

I hope some of them do happen. As far as lt5, notice it says ohc and not dohc. The lt-1 was made from 70-73 then revived again as the lt-1 again in 92.Same with the ls6. Who knows?? A ohc ls1 would be sweet. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
