Default Re: mini zr-1? 4 cam 24 valve 300 hp

[quote=tomtom72;76365]I was watching one of the episodes of that Ultimate Factory series over the weekend and almost fell over when they showed the new base V6 for the camaro.

*Just got my '10 "LLT-V6" Camaro, absolute screamer! Not as quick as my '91 Z but that is just a few mods away. This motor seems to respond well to basics exhaust iat relocation etc. But the best will come after the ECM software access gets solved. Just a few basics on this V6: Forged crankshaft, 6 bolt mains, Direct injection, polymer coated pistons, etc.*


Watching them build the motor; I thought I saw some genetic connections to our LT5's.

*No real LT5 heritage that I am aware of. Actually, this engine was developed by Holden and produces in the 380+ hp range with a tweaked "open" engine management computer. Check out the CAMARO5 forum you would be amazed.**

Made me think what would direct injection do for an LT5?
Good Question.
