I like the black roof, black lights, and the fat back tires.
The thread below goes on and on. If the 500 hp rumor is true then I expect the car will have a 7.0l. 427ci*405hp/346ci=499hp Certainly GM can get to 500 hp with a 6.4l if they wanted to try that hard. There is a guy on ls1tech that is firm about the new z06 being a 6.4l as he is involved in some part of the production process. http://forums.gminsidenews.com/showpost.ph...391&postcount=1 Note the other z06 off to the right edge of the image in the first post in the above thread. In person the c6 looks more compact. I like the one I saw better than the photographs of them. So I am more excited about the c6 z06 than in previous days. Enjoy |

7.0L and 500 HP is not just a rumor. It's been what we've been hearing for over a year now from various GM people and suppliers in the Detroit area. One of my friends who works at GM's Milford Proving Grounds says it will also have a dry sump if all the LS7 C6s he's seen doing testing are any indication. That would be interesting.
The 7L will also have titanium connecting rods and valves. A lot of the Viper guys at work are worried about the new LS7 vs. the Viper, but if GM only rates the LS7 at 500 HP as has been rumored, there will be a quick response from Dodge I bet. |
