Inside every Z06 is an LS7 aluminum-block V8. It puts out an SAE-certified (Society of Automotive Engineers) 505 hp and 470 lb.-ft. of torque. Hand-built at the GM Performance Build Center in Wixom, Mich., the LS7 engine contains a litany of racing-derived components, such as an eight-quart dry-sump lubrication system, titanium valves and connecting rods, forged-steel crankshaft with six-bolt main bearings, high-profile cam, and Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machined heads for better air/fuel flow. Even with its performance, the engine does not incur a federal government gas-guzzler penalty.

rear tyres 19 x 12 325 x 30

fronts 18 x 9.5 275 x 35

What a awsome car

Here's an idea, why not just import these as the premium model instead of wasting time with the four door :yup:

On topic though, someone should fit an LS7 in a VE (or VY-VZ), just for shits and giggles..

Why it's pickup only. If you manage to still get ripped off then you must be a retard.

Seems to me that the smarter / more cost efective way to get the same (or more) hp and bags more torque would be a snail or two under the bonnet.

Am I missing somthign here? again.......
