Several points, I too have heard about the Factory Supercharged C6 Z06. Blue Devil is the name of the project. For some reason they were only going to offer this car in Electron Blue. I fancy black myself. I would rather have GM supercharge then do it myself GM = warranty, do it yourself you pay for whatever breaks. Hey Turo thanks for posting the link, I am sure it helped for some to read it. Les Stanford in Dearborn,MI said they only had a few details and no pricing as of yet. Some of the upgrades mentioned were Carbon Fiber driveshaft, rearend equivalent to DTE's stg III or better, and a major clutch upgrade. Can you say twin, or triple plate. Extensive upgrades to the cooling, more capacity, lower setting for t-stat. No specifics were given in the memo to Les Stanford that I was shown. It was more of a hype the product note. I can only imagine what the aftermarket can do, new pulley for the blower, etc, etc, etc. Sorry for being so wordy. God I love this stuff.

I love building older cars that were used to be considered fast just to keep up with the new stuff.

That tranny had better be more then beefy, it had better be roided out to handle all the torque that monster is going to make.
