GM to revive LT5 name
A quote from AutoBlog
"The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after." Holy Crap!

Re: GM to revive LT5 name
Also it appears autoblog took the story from Motor Trend, who said "they could only HOPE GM would revive the LT5 moniker" not that they were doing it.

Re: GM to revive LT5 name
If they call any normal small block an LT5 I will be disappointed and will be regularly showing those suckers what a Real LT5 is.
