My wish was for the ZR1 to have gotten an engine upgrade and the Z28 to have gotten the LS9. It would have really given the shelby a push. It would have needed to be reengineered. But oh well it will still kick some puppy chow tail anyway

In regard to the hood design and more specifically the openings, I was told at the last SEMA event by a chevrolet official, that the Jay Leno car had similar openings which helped with downforce on the front end. Perhaps just maybe, these openings have that similar function???

Could it be they had to raise them for the new cold air intake scoops just below them??????

What are the chances that is not really an LSA?

This is exactly what my inside friend described to be months back. If his HP figures are correct... look out GT500.

Looks like they are recording a bunch of various temps in the engine bay...wonder if they are worried about colling in the camaro engine compartment as opposed to the vette's. Or they just record a standard group of temp channels for all testing.

Not if they're trying to add brake cooling ducts.
Also the tires they're running around on appear to Pirelli R-comps. Note the hood has hood pins too. May be a hood option where as the existing hood would still come on the a 'base' Z? I have been heir lurk around here for some time now, and if the Z is a drivers version of the SS with an LSA under the hood it has an honest chance to catch back up to it's less portly adversary pre Alpha Camaro. I like where this is going. I just hope they make it so the hardcore want the Z's and the people who want the comfy, pretty darn well performing car stick to the SS. If that is case, the sky is the limit with the Z

I agree, but it's hard to tell because there is a BIG BLACK cover on both of them!

Thanks for the pics of the engine I realize they are still testing and I hope they take thier time to work out all the kinks.
I speculate that the different versions are testing different components. I hope that it is a good cooling system (engine/brakes/etc.) for us deep south owners. |
