I knew someone would get a laugh out of that.

Honestly, there's no way I can use all the car I already have. I can't imagine having BETTER brakes than what's on my car. Insane. The only part of the ZR-1 that I'm jealous about is the lower first gear in the transmission. It will be much easier to launch that car than my Z06.

Blowers are cool, but there will always be that special place in my heart for the sound of my LS7 with 427 cubic inches singing at 7,200rpms...and it makes 620hp too....at the wheels.

Re: 2009 Corvette ZR1

Yeah, remember 620 hp is the minimum it will have, I keep hearing 700hp. The thing is going to be crazy! I bet they get close to 1000whp with just minimal mods. Too bad they aren't AWD, they aren't going to hook for crap. They need to bring the Sy/Ty's back with the LS3 in it.

Re: 2009 Corvette ZR1

Oh jeezus, check this out!



The LS9 has more torque at 2k rpm than the LS7 has for peak torque!

There is an error on the LS3 HP graph also, it should be shifted to the right.

Re: 2009 Corvette ZR1

HP and Tq cross at 5252, unless you are a LS3 then its ~4700rpm. 6800rpm, that is getting up there, I am not even at full boost yet.

Re: 2009 Corvette ZR1

Yeah, this was an internal document that got leaked out. The LS3 HP curve is shifted 500 rpm to the left of where it should be.
