New LT5
Was just reading the Feb issue of Vette and there was a small article about the new performance tuned corvette for next year. Lo and Behold they stated that the new supercharged LT1 may be dubbed LT5! What do ya know!!

Re: New LT5
The article stated that a performance tuned vette would be out next year. However, they did not know what they would call it. It mentioned Z06; Z07 and ZR1 as possibles.

Re: New LT5
The supercharged newgen LTx engine pics floating around seem to pay homage to the LT4 with the red and aluminum striped upper manifold styling.

Re: New LT5
The new performance tuned corvette is the Z06 being announced this month for 2015 a LT4 pushing 625hp. Based on what I've heard it's very unlikely you will see a ZR1 again at least in the short term.
