It is the new ZO6. LS7, 427cuin. Chevy rates it 505hp. I chassis dynoed it with 300miles on it and it turned 459.44 rwhp @ 6850rpm, 435 rwtrq @ 6550rpm. A typical horse power lose through the drive train is between 15-18%. Do the math and the actual horse power at the crank is closer to 560. I was also told it had a 5300rpm limit in 5th gear. We blew that theory away, we ran 200+mph in fifth gear shifted at 6800rpm to sixth and kicked the dyno off at 220mph and still making 435rwhp. What a beast. It is a hand full on the street. Problem is, the car is very easy to drive, it's the lead right foot that will get you in trouble. I bought a Valentine One radar/lazer locator and hit has paid for itself many times over in just 2 weeks.
I haven't been able to locate a solid area for the trailer hitch just yet, and Chevy has not been able to help with a location either.
kills include: 2 SS Z28's, 1 C5 ZO6 vette, 1 TransAm WS6 and a porsche. I never saw the back of it so I don't know what it was. 1 subaru WRX, that one was easy .Greg Denton
