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. Notice the Black Surburban right behind C8 - Pictures? They jump out and "neutralize" the situation. I'll have a 2020 Corvette, and a Big Mac with fries.

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.

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. ,

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. g
