Re: C8 ZO6 and C8R
They must be selling a lot of blazers and malibus to fund this project. That engine sounds amazing.

Re: C8 ZO6 and C8R
Is there any doubt that thing running around Sebring isn’t a pushrod motor?

"According to Chevrolet, the C8.R race car will be revealed sometime this fall. When it does, take a good look under the engine cover, because what you see there is what you'll be getting in the next Z06, and it won't have pushrods." Let's keep fingers crossed!!

As for 800-1000HP, are we getting to the point where it is only a number? Because I cannot see how that power gets to the ground effectively (or without someone killing themselves). |
