800 HP Yenko Camaro Announced by SVE
http://www.motortrend.com/news/2017-...00-horsepower/
Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE) unveiled its latest 2017 Yenko Supercharged Camaro with an 800-horsepower engine build. A limited edition of 50 models will be offered and are expected to go fast — real fast, says SVE and there’s no doubt about that. Earlier this month we caught up with the 800-hp Yenko 2017 Chevrolet Corvette, which went on sale, and now there’s another option available for Bow Tie and Camaro SS fans. The SS receives a similar package like the Corvette’s with iconic Yenko graphics and a serious engine upgrade. The New Jersey-based SVE uses the classic Yenko name under license, to create modern muscle cars that share a lineage with the Yenko Camaros of the late 1960s and early 1970s. This year’s package bumps up the LT-1 engine from a pedestrian 455 hp to a Hellcat slaying 800 hp with 750 lb-ft of torque, for those looking to step up their muscle car game. Under the carbon fiber hood, the custom built engine gets a forged steel crankshaft and H-beam rods, aluminum pistons, CNC ported and polished LT-1 cylinder heads, LT-4 fuel system and injectors, and a custom supercharger. Three Yenko crest body badges, along with engine cover, hood cowl, decklid, and brake calipers badges are included. Hood stripe and side graphics are available in Gloss Black, Flat Black, White, Hugger Orange, Silver, Red, and Yellow. Other paint and stripe options are available too. The Yenko Camaro also gets 20-inch wheels, SVE headrests, fancy floor mats, and a few extra goodies. The pricy package starts at $40,000 for the upgrade and doesn’t include the cost of the donor sixth-generation Camaro, which should just about double the price. But hey, that’s the price we pay for performance and exclusivity, considering there will only be 50 examples of these beasts prowling the roadways.

I just saw this on my phone. I would give both arms and a leg for one of these. That might make it "hard" to drive but you know, challenges. 50 produced will make it a collector's item, though.

Love the wheels, like the interior but the stripe package doesn't look right. The side stripe doesn't follow the lines of the car at all.

A few cosmetic flaws (side stripes not following the body lines as well as they could have and they should have designed NEW coil covers instead of repurposing the stock ones) but over all a very beautiful car.

OMG. Why didn't I know about this before I purchased my ZL1?
