J-Rod you are right about that manifold. The LS2 looks a lot rounder on the bends. That one pictured looks like a FAST in the way its runners appear. Geez...now I have to wait even longer for a new manifold

The manifold looks exactly like the ls7 intake.

Looks like that concept GTO has the 6.4 ls7 in it.

There are some guys on the various Corvette forum who are absolutely CONVINCED the new Z06 will be a 7.0L. I personally think that's wishfull thinking. Anyone care to comment?

The new Z06 is NOT a 7.0L. Guaranteed.

not too close to corvette territory? i dont know about you but i've seen/heard ALOT more Goat commercials than corvette commercials.
if they do it'd be aswesome but concepts usually dont go into production the way they're shown

it's a special projects car, expect alot more from the LS7 i saw a gm built Twin Turbo Escalade, it dosn'r mean it will ever go into production but they like to do this to get the public all riled up
