Have to say, as much as I loathe the C8 for ditching the manual, the new LT6 is impressive - taking the crown for the most powerful NA production V8.

It also must be said, that this is the last effort by GM in V8 ICE NA Development. So if NA is your game, this is the last you will see from GM. Of course a TT version as a ZR1 or Zora is coming out (my guess is ZR1 TT, Zora is TT + hybrid from E-ray).

Anyway, the resonance balancing of the intake charge to add "supercharging" is a very cool piece of engineering:

Yea i hate there's no stick available too. And the fact that a tesla 4door just flat wears out everything out there. Electric motors ftw

If I can't find a engine shop that's not 6 months out, I might put my old ls1 back in.
