Very nice. With the supercharger assembly on the LT4, can you see the valve covers/coils?

I got to take a GT86 out on the Nordschleife in August, car handled very sweetly, but man did it need a hp adder. Car was gutless under 4K rpm. I would have loved to take that twin turbo FRS posted...

The new Z06 definitely appears to be a world class car(for the record a 458 Italia starts at ~240K) and personally, I like the looks of the C7 better than the 458 and 911/GTR. However, getting that...

Tadge's response when asked about the ZR-1 "Nothing is impossible" , so while he most certainly did not give a ringing endorsement to a future ZR-1, neither did he quash any possibility.

I think GM definitely left the possibility open by using the 1.7 on the LT4. The 2.3 TVS would have easily added 40+ hp, all else being equal. The only reason that they would do so, IMO, is that they...

Yes, it certainly will lend itself to heat soaking much sooner than the 2.3 would, simply because you are spinning the smaller blower much faster, which creates heat. GM engineers aren't stupid, so I...

Pretty awesome, and definitely looking to be track focused. Makes me wonder if the ZR-1 is still waiting in the wings? Wide body with less track influenced splitter/ground effects? Think 458 vs F12?

Currently, there is not a larger TVS rotor pack available. So if it is a tvs/roots it will be at most a 2.3 ( I hope they wouldn't put a 1.9 on the LT4).

I would be surprised if they used a centrifugal blower. I would think it far more likely that they used an eaton tvs rotor pack like the LSA/LS9. If they did, hopefully it is the new 2nd gen rotor...
