Default Ls9??

FYI:

Just read a blurb about the 2008 Corvette Engine the LS9. 650 HP / 600 Ft Pounds of Torque.

This is in the new HOTROD magazine.

If you know of anything beyond the article, please post it. It sounds like a killer Engine.

BTW: The new Viper, "Cam within a Cam", technology is really interesting as well.

Oh, if I had to guess, it will have less displacement than the LS7.

The size is 6.2 L.

BTW: I think I screwed up with the Magazine title. I'll have to find it again. I take many car magazines.

Nope, I was right, it's the New HotRod.

Here's a thread on streetfire about the Corvette SS with pics. On the second page there's a pic of the vette with the hood that's clear around the engine!

Scott,
What do you know about the car/engine? Has Mark been slipping information to you? ?
