Any one see the new 2T LT7 :)
 

So there is some info out there (with pics if you can find it) of the new LT7 coming out with the new mid engine C8 corvette, rumors are its a 5.5L twin turbo DOHC, and i hope its 4 valves per, is any one thinking its 800+HP.

Yes sir. First the LT5 and now this. The future of Chevy performance looks strong.

If that's true take my money now! I'm seriously considering getting a ZR1, but I might have to wait for the Mid-engine corvette.

Is the Mid-Engine corvette confirmed or still a rumor? Haven't had much time to check the forms lately.

It's not a rumor, but it has yet to be officially confirmed by GM...

Smaller displacement, but supercharged AND turbo charged.

Small supercharger with CVT clutch, gives instant boost, while turbos spool up and then provide max boost. Also has electric motor assist - yes - hybrid.

They may drive the supercharger with an electric motor, or possibly off the crank.

LT7

C8 makes its car show debut Jan.2019 as a 2020 model. LT2 entry motor.

Yikes that just sounds like a lot of things that can go wrong...

That is definitely the C8 engine. But where the heck do you see a supercharger? I know about the hybrid electric Twin-charged powertrain patent, but this isn’t that. This is a DOHC Dual Injection Twin-Turbocharged low displacement V8.

Yes and yes. GM patented the twin-charge but this is a twin-turbo DOHC.

Interesting also that an earlier leaked imagine show what looks like a NA LTx also. I'm certain we'll see a dual injection LT2 in the not to distant future.

what are we guessing that will cost? $250,000??

Yep. I stand corrected. Not a twin charged version.

The LT2 should be the debut C8 motor.

I was hoping to see it in the 2019 Camaro refresh, but they'll probably save it for the 2020 Corvette launch.

,

Think the C8 motor will be the LT6 (for the low end vetts), that's the name we heard about, but time will tell, then there is the one for the new Z/28, all i hear is its a monster.

Hope we can Keep up is all.

:popcorn:

Sounds like I need to visit Corvette Forum :biggrin:

I know there is an LT6 coming, but I thought they would go:

LT1 LT2 LT3 normally aspirated

LT4 LT5 LT6 LT7 forced induction

But now, maybe not if LT6 is the entry C8 motor.

Very interesting, and when LT is done - on to Twin Charged.

Internal combustion engines going out with a BANG! Peaking right now.
