Jesus ******* christ. Aside from the design looking awesome so far, there are 24 other letters of the alphabet they could have used other than the same name that has been accompanied by laughter for the past 14 years.
Also i wonder how much power the stock DI system will support before being upgraded, if at all.
And i wonder how hard it will be to crack the new OS.
Im really excited about this. Hopefully megasquirt comes out with a unit soon so people can do conversions easily.

Like the raised runner
Like the DI.
Like the dry sump standard (about time)
Don't like the cam driven DI pump (going backwards?)
Don't like the fact that GM says it's going to be impossible to tune.
Don't like the fact it only makes 20 more hp. It should have been a 475hp engine imo.
Cylinder Head Comparison, looks like they saved a ton of weight here in the casting:
Notice the tri-lobe lobe on the very end driving the DI pump

"409"
If by some miracle the ECM/ECU fuel tables are accessed, it automatically voids the warranty on the entire vehicle.
The GTR computer system has and enable "black box" type of ecu that was encrypted internally/ essentially it was a stand alone OS. Thus it could be interrogated until unlocked. This ECM makes the GTR ECU look like a calculator.
My suggestion would be for consumers if enough of them are wanting it to push for "Performance Optimization Services."
I have a feeling the finally output numbers will satisfy 80% of consumers.
Wait for it.
Warmest regards,

I'm calling 700hp aftermarket naturally aspirated after 3 years of this being debuted on stock cubes. Programming is trivial challenge that will be solved, but once we figure out how this thing ticks; it will skyrocket in terms of perfromance. It's a solid evolution of the already very powerful ls line. I'm not worried about aftermarket at all. Same thing happened when the ls came out. I want one of these with a new cam and headers in my t/a and see what happens.

Spraying this engine wouldn't be ideal.
More precise fuel timing with direct injection makes tuning more precise and more difficult, higher risk. The physics of it is extremely complicated as it's difficult to model and predict when the combustion due to compression will occur. So right now, it's only feasible in a very narrow operating range.
The optimization is difficult and dangerous with direct injection, (YOUR SATETY MATTERS).
GM knows what it is doing.
Another very very big event will come forward to satisfy majority of consumers.
