The LS7 was an engine without a car when they did the Gen 5 Z/28.

As cool as that would be, it's not going to happen in a production car that has to meet CAFE and EPA standards in all 50 states. This is the exact reason that they did not put an N/A engine in the Z06, it was their first preference but they couldn't get a 7L to fit through all the hoops it has to jump through.
