There is no information at this point GM will release the car in January. The ALMS teams cannot use the current LT1 engine for the race cars so it is my speculation that the L88 will be released in January. It will be the replacement for the Z06.

Maybe they can use my 216 Nailhead until they get the new engine!

Here is a pic of the new LT4/L88 supercharged GEN 5 engine. There are 2 new engines on the way, a 600hp and 700hp version. Sort of like the 556hp GEN 4 LSA in the Cadillac CTS-V and the Camaro ZL1 and the C6 ZR1 Vette/638hp GEN 4 LS9.



The GEN 5 LT1 Stingray crate engine is available complete in both a dry sump and wet sump version. Forged crank/rods/pistons on a base V8 engine.

460hp@ 6000rpm/465 lb/ft torque@4600rpm

p/n 12657236 Gets you a wet sump complete engine
p/n 12657246 Gets you a complete dry sump version.

Cost is $10,700, less expensive than the 427cid LS7 and out torques LS7 until 4000rpm using 376 cubes, LT1 is with 5 lb/ft of LS7 at its torque peak. 90 percent of peak torque available from 3,000 rpm to 5,500 rpm. Has more power density at 74hp/liter than LS3 and LS7.

Over 10,000,000 hours of computer ECU usage on these GEN 5 engines, mostly in the cylinder heads. Direct injection and forced induction are a match made in heaven. The injected fuel is used to cool the incomming air, which allows for more static compression, or boost.

The good old days are here.

This is quite literally, the coolest thing I have ever heard...ever!
