I've put forth 2 plans.

First is both the Z/28 and ZL1 will use the LT4. The ZL1 will be a street version with all the comforts and awesomeness. The Z/28 will get significantly light weighting and perhaps get the CC brakes. Think offsetting the increase of the LT1 and envision a 3,650 pound car with 650 HP.

Second is GM has an LS7 replacement. A 500 plus HP NA engine that could work well in a C7 Gran Sport and does better at keeping cost in line. The Z/28 gets that, light weighting and the ZL1 gets the HP and comfort.

Can't wait to see.
