i hope the LT4 supercharged is for the ZL1 for the 6th gen. i hope they keep the Z06 N/A and make the ZR1 the boosted version.

GM needs some turbos in their lineup.

I bet they bring back the LT5 for the ZR1 like in the 90's. That would be pretty damn cool!

i wouldnt necessarily mind a SC Z but i am not a fan that other than base model you only have boosted models to choose from.

Anyone know the CI of the LT4? A S/C Z06 & turbo'd ZR1 is fine by me!!

Seems they are happy with the 6.2L model for N/A and boost. I don't think we'll see the 7.0L again. :-(

I was confused about the LT4 statement then I remembered GM pretty much set that one up. Maybe this 50's chick who's running **** now will slap some sense into these dummies.

Yeah ^^^ hes right. At least it still has the 6.2 and they didnt do what bmw did to the m5, they took out the legendary v10 and put in a smaller v8 with 2 turbos. Alot people were not to happy with that lol
