My new Corvette Fever magazine says the new LS9 ZO6 will be based on the current 6.2L but supercharged. L92's on the Z06? Forged Pistons this time??? Any more info on this?

i don't know about that supercharger idea, kinda destroys the integrity of the GM powerplant, it's kinda cool runnin with cobras on all motor, something to brag about, i don't like the idea but my opinion don't mean $h!t

Good for power and drivability, but bad because your basicly locked into a FI set up instead of having the choice of staying N/A or going FI.

id love a sc or turbo vette motor with a stout bottom end.
like 900 horse with a sc change and fuel upgrades lol.

SScott236

You cant really compare it to a cobra though cuz it makes 650hp from what Ive heard.

SScott236

Also did yall see the pics of the it? Its a strange looking motor. Also what are they going to call it? SS? Blue Devil?

chuntington101

why is it a strange looking motor????

think a motors like that could really push the corvette into the 911 turbo and Ferrari 430 teritory!

thanks Chris.

The corvette(C6 Z) is already faster than both of those now

I think this will be good for GM. People will be having 750+ horsepower vettes on the stock bottom end. and in a couple of years when those motors are still running, GM will have proved itself.

Chill Im not insulting it. From the pics Ive seen of it in the corvette ss, it looked strange. It had something on top of it.

I thought it was wierd too. I believe it's an intercooler on top.

Intercooler.

Couldnt have said it any better myself.

Looks like the same inter-cooler setup that the Genral uses on the Caddy Northstar.

Yes, i have read it is very similar to the SCharger found on the Caddy Northstar (Same type of design). I also prefer it be a N/A 600 HP 427 which they could achieve blindfolded if they wanted to!

im not beliving anything untill i see the car at the dealership.

i dont belive they are bringing back the camaro untill i see them at the dealership either. THAT is when you can quit speculating whether or not what is the deal with a car, and only then.. untill then there is to much speculation.

im not saying its not! mearly saying people that would normal not look at a vette might start to take a real intrest if it offerd Porche GT standards of performance for 911 money. like wise if the new Vette could take the fight to the 599GTB then some people might buy one instead of a 430!

as for the engine SScott236, it is a diffrent way to mount a SC than is normally done. if you take a look at the Merc and Jag setups you will see its very similer. you mount the SC very low down, then the intercoolers are mounted ontop and there is a pair. i imagine this give you better intercooling than mounting the SC on top????

thanks Chris.
