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.

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.

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.
