Hey gents I have a question and please dont blast me for this one as im in the Navy and im deployed right now so the internet is slow and I dont have time to keep up with things concerning GM and the new camaro.
From what I can tell just based on reading a few pages of this thread there was some confusion about wheather or not GM was going to release a 550 HP blown version of the camaro (z28) and toward the end of this thread I see that it is still going to happen one thing I didnt catch is when. Again I appologize for asking the same questions as everyone else but likei mentioed before the web service is not the greatest in the Navy. and I just dont have the time to wait on web pages to load up. is there any engine specs out im assuming its going to be the 6.2L engine with a bit lower compression.... thanks in advance Mike |

The 'when' isn't known to the public, unfortunately...
But it is coming. As for the engine, the general consensus is that it will contian some form of the 2009 CTS-V's LSA engine. |

might be a little high, but maybe not. Expect it to be more than the GT500, but not too far from a base Corvette.

In my humble opinion, the z/28 moniker shouldnt be on the high horsepower model, especially considering that the z/28 started as a low cubic inch hi RPM racing model to compete in trans am racing. they should make a low wieght better handling edition to call a z/28 and carry over the zl-1 moniker for the high horsepower edition.

the z/28 model could have better vented brakes in the rear, light weight wheels, front spoiler and rear diffuser, cold air box, maybe some more extreme fender flares for wider tires. a different grill that isnt so deep so it catches less air. just a couple of ideas.
