If there is to be a Z28 using current engines, the only one that makes sense is the LS7. The LSA is for the ZL1 and the LS3 is for the SS.

Can a Z28 be more with less? Yes! That's why I and others like me want an LS7 based Z28. |

IF the Z28 is basically an LS7 1LE, it would be interesting to see how it compares to the ZL1. Would it be similar to the Z06/Z07 Carbon being almost as fast as the ZR1 or would the ZL1 still be significantly faster.

I didn't mean that to be the Z28. I said earlier, the only engine being built today that makes sense for a Z28 would be the LS7.

The only other viable alternative, for Gen-5?
Premier the coming LT1 engine as a "going away present" in the Gen-5 1LE/Z28...run some mighty fine times in the 3900 lb. version...then show just how incredibly improved the Gen-6 ZEE is, with a 3-400 lb. diet and enhanced Alpha underpinnings... |

Beyond that? There isn't much. Its expected that they'll come in 2 displacements: 5.3L and 6.2L. I wouldn't be surprised if VVT is used on all versions of it, and I'm sure they'll make a few improvements to the AFM system too. I don't think there are any more facts or solid rumours about them. Thats what the rumour is
