Would LOVE to see a 427 in the Camaro. I often wondered if they added variable valve timing and direct injection to the LS7 (making an LT7?) and if that would pass the cold start emissions that large displacement engines struggle with. You would probably be able to get to 550 HP easily in a N/A small block. Perfect recipe for a Z/28.

This is very VERY wishful thinking though... I'm sure it won't happen, but a guy can dream can't he???

I agree wishful thinking. IMO the 427 died with the LS7.

Best bet for future Z/28 motor is that rumored 5.5 DOHC from mid engine vette.

Although I totally agree with you, I have my fingers in my ears, eyes closed, and am saying "La la la la la la, can't hear you, la la la la la la...".

The 427 died way before the LS7 considering the LS7 is actually a 428

Like when the ford 5.0 really wasn't really a 5.0 until the coyote.

and the 7.4L 454/455 was neither

Quinten_33 · 12-02-2017, 06:03 PM

A 392 isn’t even a 392.

Quinten_33 · 12-02-2017, 06:07 PM

My dream engine for the Z/28 is the LSX 454. That engine with the ZR1 exhaust with ZL1 looks would be a killer combo. All it would be missing is H.D. 455 stickers on the hood bulge.

Yea, but that Coyote for 2018? Mercy it's makin power for it's displacement! Just think about a small block vs the big block, displacement is what it is.

Hello

My personal opinion is that if they make a Z/28, I hope it has a high reving N/A engine in it, not the LT5.

IIRC it was 68 or 69 when all the 396's actually were 402s. But all the marketing materials just kept calling it a 396 bc the 396 had a lot of street cred at the time.
