Problem is Hennessey hasn't come up with a proper clutch to handle all the power that will mate up between the LS9 and the Tremec. The test driver mentioned in the article about all the clutch slip!

It's a good move for GM to put the LSA in the Z. They will prolly sell more LSA Camaros than Caddy's!

with LSA what kind of mods will be available to push it to 600RWHP ? Can you swap the pulley to increase boost ? I guess with headers they will have to design then after the car comes out unless the fit would match the current config. Cams I suppose.

Did I miss something? We all know the Z28 is coming and common sense dictates an LSA to compete with the Shelby and give some headroom due to the inevitable Ford response. FI is always easier to get more power cheaper.
Nothing groundbreaking here...... |
