theyre going to be fucking pricey, i can assure you that. but they said its going to be the most powerful z06 ever in production (article i read) so i too am curious to see wtf they do to it horsepower wise. but hellllloooooo near 6 figure price tag regardless.
The new LT1 is really bottle necked by the tune. They are already making 515-520whp cam only. A 550bhp LT4 would be really doable with a small stroke increase. A 4" crank is a 414.
The other route is a small single turbo version of the LT1. I was looking through the stock tune for the LT1 today and the ECM has tables for wastegate control, timing vs boost, boost enrichment, etc. So we know for sure the ZR1 or Z06 will be turbo. Maybe both.
