Re: The New LS9??
Yeah, GM High Tech Performance Magazine has mentioned that for awhile now. Rumor has it, that there is a C6 is rolling around Michigan with prototype LS9. Its suppose to be going into the new Corvette 'Stringray', or 'Corvette SS' or 'Blue Devil' (whatever they decide to finally call it). Its a supercharged V8 (duh) with at least 650hp, but with a price over $100K. There is also a smaller LS8, which is also supercharged, but not intercooled, putting out around 500hp.
I've also read that GM sent out some 'preliminary castings' to some engine builders for testing, research and so-forth, and found out that the blocks specs measured out a whopping 511ci with massive heads to fit it. Sounds interesting...

Re: The New LS9??
i think either a LS7 or LS9 in a new SS camaro sounds nice.

Re: The New LS9??
GM won't put the LS9 in the new camaro SS. Makes no sense to have a car rival the flagship. I guarentee that the camaro SS will take over the LS7 once the corvette receives the LS8 and LS9.

Re: The New LS9??
I think if the new Camaro SS does come with the LS7, probably will be priced around the low to mid 30's. Can't wait to own one.

Re: The New LS9??
Are you sure the engines are supercharged??? The LS7 already makes that kind of power N/A

Re: The New LS9??
Yes, I'm sure. The LS8 and LS9 will be supercharged. And that 650hp rating is a conservative estimation. GM hasn't really done much testing with it yet, but just looking at it, they're guessing AT LEAST 650. It will probably make more when they release the actual car and engine. I thinking at least 700, especially with the new Diamondback Viper making its debut.

Re: The New LS9??
and chevy always runs low boost, so bump up the PSI and there is some more HP and a diffrent pully.

If an LS7 Camaro cost 30-30K, almost half the cost of the car will be for the engine itself. Don't think this is going to happen. Logically, a LS7 Camaro would push 50K.
