C7 ZR breaks cover - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Im dissapointed in how GM is recycling designations for their engines. It makes for a mess and people will begin to talk about it much more very soon. Now theres a genii LT1 and LT4 and a current LT1/4 and now LT5... what a mess.
Styling wise I think its right on par with current manufacturers that are all about excess flares, scoops and spoilers. Clearly Pontiac was a few decades too early

My guess is the dohc engine for the C8 will be a 4L, compact with twin turbos or a supercharger. Hopefully mid engine as well. Leaving the C4 ZR-1 the only DOHC Front engined corvette ever
